I have just received the usb midi adapter I bought on

in and it was recognized immediately- it shows up in lsusb as:
Bus 002 Device 014: ID 4348:552d
Anyway- if I plug it into my ordinary keyboard or the midi out on my
Evolution MK461 then it's very slow
You mean, it has high latency? How high?
and frequently stops and/or plays the wrong notes-
theres usually note
0 (very low) attached to any note I get from it.
Apparently, this adapter doesn't use the USB MIDI protocol correctly.
Please show a dump that you get from amidi (aseqdump has already
tried to interpret the MIDI byte stream and filtered out anything
it thinks is incorrect).
Sending it to aseqdump gives lots of "Active
sensing" messages.
There's nothing wrong with that. Many USB MIDI interfaces filter out
Active Sensing messages, but that makes it impossible to detect if the
MIDI cable has become unplugged.
My first instinct was that USB1 is too slow and it
needs USB2,
The theoretical maximum amount of data that could be sent over a MIDI
cable is 3125 bytes per second.
