Looked it up.
I like a lot! I'll just have to get started :-) Tell
me: why ALSA-MIDI on the RPi side? Does this mean I don't have to have
JACK running on the RPi? That would be most extremely cool.
If you are only using one path as in this case, Jack will serve no
purpose. Alsa is already there and keeping running bits as few as possible
will give the best timing. KB -> pi(alsa -> qmidinet -> wireless)
Or with Jack: Kb -> pi(alsa -> netjack - > wireless)
The problem with netjack, is that one end runs as a backend and so if
network fails, jack fails. The master side will keep running if the slave
side is out of range, but the slave side jack would exit. If you were
running audio as well, then netjack might be better as it is all in one.
