I downloaded vanilla sources from kernel.org and "compiled" using the debian
way.

Hi again,
debian stock kernels are not rt. In order to work with lower latencies
and
boost audio performance you need to patch the
generic kernel.
A fix for midi should be in this rt patch
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/patch-2.6.26.8-rt16.bz2(…
but I am not sure) and higher. Otherwise you can
download the patch here

Actually I am on 2.6.29-rt-vanilla, debian way compiled, on
testing/squeeze
but I did it on lenny a couple of days after it
was released.
When compiling from vanilla sources you must prevent compiler warnings to
stop building by checking "Kernel hacking" -> "Continue building
despite
compiler warnings" and then go with make-kpkg as usual on debian.
Where did you get "Debian Way" sources for 2.6.29?
The last kernel I made for rt patches that was workable was 2.6.23 which I
got
prepatched from musix. Kernels I built for 2.6.25 and 2.6.26 had problems
with
IDE DMA and were too dangerous to use (this was for a via chipset MB). I am
running an unpatched (none available) 2.6.28 without problems but have done
no
audio on it. Things play OK.
