i should add that the wavetable synth is only a destination device on win32. for
macs, you will see "quicktime" as a destination device. but the general midi
functionality (i.e., channel 10 for drums, note numbers, etc.) ought to be
exactly the same from realmidi's pov.

realmidi doesn't currently check for directx or quicktime. maybe it should...
since on linux, this will be quite different (alsa, etc.), and quicktime
instruments is NOT recommended for this type of thing on os x, at least that's
what my coreaudio friends tell me.

hth,
vora
