Very Computer

I would like Int Explorer to play midi and .kar files without using
QuickTime.

QuickTime 5 has some conflicts with some of my other applications and I want
to disengage it most of the time.

Any other MIDI player plug-ins I can use?

  Crescendo's new version, if I remember right, included a softsynth
similar to Quicktime's synth.  

  Therea are others, as far as player plug-ins, but I haven't bothered
with any others, as these work fine.  Vanbasco is a good general MIDI
file player, better than Media player or similar things for working
just with MIDI files.

  Now, if you also want to have a soft synth for the sounds, rather
than using your system/soundcard synth, you can get those separately.
The two best general softsynths for MIDI playback are Roland VSC88
(www.edirol.com) and Yamaha SY100XG (www.yamaha.co.uk).  Both aren't
free, but have free trials.  Quicktime's softsynth is OK for free, as
is Microsofts's DirectX7/8 Softsynth (WinMe/2k/XP supports it as a
default system MIDI device).
