Yes, it seems so. Anyway I can't get MIDI working.

I uploaded the MAX patches, but also compiled to a program for windows 
and OSX here:

For OS X: http://cds1.lunarpages.net/LC+%20Midi2TCP-IP%20Example(X).zip

For Windows XP: http://cds1.lunarpages.net/LC+%20Midi2TCP-IP%20Example(W).zip


The windows version is untested, as i do not have any sequencer program 
on my Win machine.

MIDI2TCP is also reacting on NoteOns as experiment. Note 0-127 triggers 
cuelist 0-127, but you need to send a Program Change + bank select to 
reach higher cuelist numbers.


Could Mac and Windows users with sequencer program please try this 
MIDI2TCP thing?

As there is no doc, please ask on this list if you need help or if you 
have questions.

Let me know if this is a useful tool,
