Testing a synthesizer

[james collins]

 From what I was told by the company that makes the USB to serial  
adaptor, I don't need a driver for the os I am running mac os x 10.5.7  
the person I had talked from the company had me go to my apple menu  
and there was a listing under USB that said something like USB-serial  
the person I talked to said that the adaptor cable is alright.

That would be

ls /dev/cu then a period and then an asterix *?
