What about using midi-thru boxes? they don't add
latency to
the midi signal,
they just 'amplify' and 'split'.
If you run 14 MIDI devices through one MIDI Port using
MIDI Thru Boxes you get a worse timing compared
to using a multiple Output Interfaces like
the Steinberg Midex 8 oder the Midiman Midisport 8x8.
But I don't know if there is a 8x8 Interface with Linux drivers.
All of them implement a feature to reduce latency and I think
that's a problem for the driver developers because the companies
don't want to show the specifications for that in public.

PS: I added the Linux-Audio-User group to the cc because this
is linux specific question.

Subject: [music-dsp] linux and midi
I need to connect 14 midi devices (each using 1
programmable midi channel)
to a PC runnig linux. Midi thru isn't an
option, since the
latency will be
too high. Does anyone has hardware
recommendations?
