Hi Nathan.
You have 2 choices for connecting your X5D to your G4. One is to get a USB
MIDI interface and use the MIDI In/Out Connections. The other is to put a
Stealth or other serial port PCI card in your Mac to replace the 'missing'
modem/printer ports. The USB option is no doubt the cheaper. It should work
OK with all current sequencing apps on Mac.
