Re: [LAU] Qsynth MIDI bug ? (was:MIDI data dump utility)

The funny thing is that data of the following kind is shown, as per each pad hit on the Alesis Control Pad (which is kind of like an Octapad): 53819,20:0,Note on,1,48,0 53817,20:0,Note on,1,48,127 53384,20:0,Note on,1,48,0 53383,20:0,Note on,1,48,127 45593,20:0,Note on,1,48,0 45592,20:0,Note on,1,48,127 So that's looking quite allright for fixed velocity and should produce a Qsynth sound on each note. But it does not, even thoguh Qsynth acknowledges the receiving of data by blinking its little green light. A sound is made from time to time, but not on each pad hit. Is this a fault with the Control Pad ? To verify this I simply connect the Control Pad to the M-Audio Prokey88 keeyboard that has built-in sounds via MIDI out/in. And indeed, on each and every pad hit a sound is made. Thus the Control Pad is not at fault as it does send MIDI data properly. Is this now a bug with Linux ? How come Qsynth receives all MIDI data (as shown by kmidimon) but does not always emit a sound ? Is this somehow a fault with Qsynth ? Let's try with Zynaddsubfx. Surprisingly, Zynaddsubfx emits a sound for each and every pad hit, even on drum stick rebounces. OK, let's try with Hydrogen. It worls all right. Each pas hit generates a sound. Back to Qsynth. Nope. Same thing. Only once in a while will a pad hit generate a sound. Strange. Is this a bug with Qsynth or is there a parameter to adjust ? Otherwise, witha MIDI keyboard Qsynth performs very well, never had a problem. Cheers, Al
