HI !

Dont use the timer to move `em ! Because, when it is drawing, the
MIDI timer callback cannot occour. 

Use just a simple timer routin:
CALLBACK timerproc(void) {
 timer++;
 };

And move the buttons, in the main program ! Check timer every time.
like this:

While(!kbhit()) {
 while(timer>0) {
  timer--;
  movethem();
  };
 if (timer>=0) {
  drawthem();
  };
 };

Good luck !
