Slightly off topic of linux audio, but I need some

the only list I currently monitor with electonic musicians.
I have a few hardware synths that I would like to begin using with my
computer music setup. The last time I had them all set up I did not have
a computer included in the system, so I had somewhat simpler connection
needs.

speaking personally, i am holding on to my "vintage" Ensoniq KMX-16 16x16
physical MIDI patch bay. I also own a "computer"-based MIDI patch bay at a
studio but I forget its name - functionally it is the same basic idea, but
happens to have a more sophisticated (programmable) configuration. It dates
to the early 2000's, and is German. The Ensoniq works great.
