Well, the amount of MIDI data depends on what the OP is doing. I know he

MIDI, and it can get pretty busy with 16 instruments (i.e. one MIDI
interface) plus audio.


There was a time when a full (16 channel) MIDI stream would choke up,
but that amount of data per unit time is a tiny drop in the bucket
compared to even 16-bit audio.
