Hi Clemens,
Thanks for the reply. I still don't understand where
the usb-midi i/o device is.
Here's my device chain Tascam DM-24 digital mixing
consol and ardour.
DM-24 (mmc) -> to Ardour, Ardour (mtc) -> DM-24
The DM-24 sends a deferred play (type =3) to Ardour
and causes the Ardour transport to play engage. Ardour
in turn replies with MTC to syncronize the location of
the DM-24 transport with itself.
I've used 'dd...' to look for incoming messages:
'dd bs=1 if=/dev/snd/midiC1D0'
There's no messages passing through /dev/snd/midiC1D0
which is the device I use with the Audiophile 2496 for
example <MIDI-port tag="midisport"
device="/dev/snd/midiC1D0" type="alsa/raw"
mode="duplex"/>.
Perhaps I'm missing the obvious.

incoming mmc and to send mtc. I've got what
appears to
be a working USB midiman 8x8:
aconnect -i
client 72: 'Rawmidi 1 -
MidiSport 8x8'
[type=kernel]
0 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 0'
1 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 1'
2 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 2'
3 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 3'
4 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 4'
5 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 5'
6 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 6'
7 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 7'
8 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 8'
If the data is from/to an external device connected
to the 8x8, it should
work with the appropriate port (0-7). If the data is
for the 8x8 itself,
you could try the ninth port ("Port 8") which is
called "Control Port" in
the Windows driver.
I don't actually have a MidiSport, so I don't know
if or how it has to be
configured to do MIDI timing.
