MidiPipe is freeware from Nico Wald. This utility can be useful in a music studio or on stage to modify MIDI messages in real-time. The new 0.7.4 version fixes bugs in "Keyboard" tool and optimizes MIDI message handling (lower latency). MidiPipe 0.7.4 beta is freely downloadable.
Ed: MidiPipe solves a lot of problems, from the simple to the more advanced. For example, you may have a USB MIDI keyboard without an octave transpose button: pop this in and convert it in software. Or try more advanced solutions, like micro-tuning your keyboard. -PK

Thanks to Russel Brower on the Modular List, we happened to learn that "Mac version is now being re-considered" (from a Clavia official at NAMM).
Now all of us close our eyes and wish :)
