There is a simple command-line app called playmidi that you can use to play
midi files. Apparently it doesn't have it's own website but you should be
able to find a package easily enough.
Using cat doesn't work - I guess because the midi file format must contain
time data whereas the data coming from a midi wire is played as soon as it is
recieved.

Well, this seems blindingly obvious, and when I try it I get the MIDI out

Course, the AMM-1 doesn't seem to realize anything's happening... so
it's into they mystic now.
I tried /dev/snd/midiC0D0 as well, with the exact same results.
Trying it to /dev/snd/seq fails, though: "cat write error: Invalid
argument"
So much fun! I can download new models of mics into it via
MIDI, but am such a
MIDI novice I have no idea which app would be suitable for this sort of
thing. Any suggestions? Thanx!
I should think that you could use cat.
