you've loaded a Pulsar Midi Source module in your project?
To check if the hardware midi port of your pulsar works, chain a Midi Monitor module after the source module, play the keyboard and watch the incoming stream in the Midi Monitor window.
If so, chain the Pulsar Midi Source to a Midi Sequencer Dest module.
In your sequencer (why don't you mention which one you use?), activate the Creamware Midi port, in Cubase 5.x you'll find it in Options/Midi/...but reload the software first to refresh the loaded options.

Im using cubase vst5 (sx won't work on os 9) and i already tried to connect the midi source and dest modules, but in cubase it doens't work. I've conncted the my keyboard to my midi controller (uc-33) and that's connected to the MIDI In on my pulsar. On my windows setup it works just fine, but in OS 9 i can only control pulsar but i can't use my keyboard.

In OMS you have to check 'OMS preferred device', see OMS Controll Panel.
There 'Creamware port 1' should be activated.
If needed run a OMS 'Seach'.
I guess you have the Creamware port 1 visible in your 'current' OMS Studio Setup?
If all this is ok, start Cubase, go to Options/Midi Setup/System, check 'Input from', the Creamware port 1 should be there, click active.
This should do it.
You didn't tell us midi is received in your Pulsar project?
You tried a Midi Monitor module?
edit: 1- try also deleting Cubases preferences from the MacOS system folder, but you already know that
2- you have Creamware card ASIO selected in the Options/Audio/System window and not the Soundmanager?
not sure if this matters to midi tho
common, this should get solved, I can hear Nestor laughing...
