I've been investigating this as well, with Basilisk on Windows. The plan was to add an extension to Basilisk's serial communication functions to support the EmuSer, which is quite easy to do. But I observed that these serial functions are not called/used when running SoundDesigner under Basilisk, so the changes to them didn't have any effect... and SoundDesigner keeps responding "no communication...". I'm still wondering why the serial functions of Basilisk (which convert Mac System 6/7 serial calls to Windows serial calls) are not used when running SoundDesigner. Perhaps the SD software called the RS422 ports in another way on Mac, bypassing the official Macintosh library routines (e.g. by using interrrupts, writing/reading registers, ...). I stopped my investigation :-)
