Paul-<br><br>Thanks for the tip. I must have done some stupid mistake before, b/c I didn't see the ports with 'jack_lsp', but now I do. Now that I have this software, I'm actually going to use jack for MIDI from now on...not only is the interface more elegant, you've convinced me of the technical virtues as well.....<br>
<br>BTW, once it has all the features you'd want, perhaps you could distribute my python script with each jack release? It is a convenient front-end to he CL tools already there....some folks might like an alternative to a big GUI with loads of dependencies, esp. those in a console environment, or those who don't use KDE or many other QT-based programs.<br>
<br>Thanks again!<br><br>AKJ<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 28, 2010 at 11:21 AM, Paul Davis <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:paul@linuxaudiosystems.com">paul@linuxaudiosystems.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>I have not figured out how jack MIDI works---and I never use it (I don't really see the point when there's ALSA MIDI, frankly, but maybe someone knows better). I'm willing to add Jack-MIDI access as a feature, but someone has to tell me how I can connect it and test it from the command line using jackd (right now, 'jackd .... -X alsa' didn't work for me)<br>
