its almost
possible right now to do this, all that's missing is a
version of jack_client_open() that indicates that the client is
in-process. such a call exists, but its only for driver clients at the
moment.
any ideas how such a virtual instrument would be approached, given the
lack of built-in midi?
see the very nice diagram of JACK done by joern on the JACK web
site. it includes hints about using the ALSA sequencer for this
purpose.
not necessarily the best technical solution, but it works and it works
right now.
