This JACK program is a port of the free VST plugin
AZR-3. It is a
tonewheel organ with drawbars, distortion and rotating speakers. The
original was written by Rumpelrausch Täips.
The organ has three sections, two polyphonic with 9 drawbars each and
one monophonic bass section with 5 drawbars. The two polyphonic sections
respond to events on MIDI channel 1 and 2, and an optional keyboard
split function makes the bass section listen to the lower keys on
channel 1.
The three sections have separate sustain and percussion switches as well
as separate volume controls, and the two polyphonic sections have
separate vibrato settings. All three sections are mixed and sent through
the distortion effect and the rotating speakers simulator, where the
modulation wheel can be used to switch between fast and slow rotation,
and the fast and slow rotation speeds themselves can be changed
separately for the lower and upper frequencies.

Looks really nice.
However, its MIDI is in the qjackctl jack-MIDI pane and the MIDI devices that
might feed it are NOT, but in the "ALSA" pane. Never the 'twain do meet :-(
So, how do I play it?
I assume some of the programs (such as Muse or Rosegarden) will eventually
give me a MIDI port here (use as soft-synth) but my keyboard?
