Everything seems to be allright with midi, module snd-seq-midi is
loaded, Rosegarden says Midi OK, audio OK. ZynAddSubFx works when using
notation editor, but can't get PSR-273 keyboard to produce sound via
midi. I turned "PC mode" on from Yamaha, as the guidebook tells.
QSynth tells that using alsa_raw failed, could that be a problem?
Qjackctl shows these:
Readable / output ports:
62:Midi Through
64:Audigy MPU-401 (UART)
Writable / input ports
62:Midi Through
64:Audigy MPU-401 (UART)
65:Emu10k1 WaveTable
Soundcard : Audigy2

The external MIDI port is "Audigy".
I have Audigy 2 ZS bulk soundcard, so I had to buy
joystick/midi bracket
to connect midi cable to my PC.
Please check that the MIDI port itself is correctly accessed by the
driver. If the cable doesn't allow connecting the output to the input,
you can connect the MIDI output and input pins (12 and 15) of the
gameport together with a wire:
8 1

Wow, this looks interesting but I don't know if I have the guts to do
that. Thanks for the tip, I'll look for that if everything else fails.
That reminds me of great line in movie "Twin Town" :
"If everything else fails, try Wales"

Just a few thoughts:
Do you have a soundfont loaded on the Audigy?
Is the synth-knob active in the mixer and is the slider up?
Have you tried toggling the analog/digital output in the mixer (if it's
there)?
Can you send midi data the other way, i.e from computer to the PSR?
Hope any of this helps,

Yes, slider's up and active.

Yes, audio works fine and midi is working too (I can listen to

Hi Esa. /sbin/lspci for my Audigy2 soundblaster shows amongst other lines, one
for the "gameport" on the card, as below.
Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy Midi/Game port (rev 04).
and my lsmod shows 2 lines referring to this.
emu10k1_gp 3584 0
gameport 4608 emu10k1_gp
Neither of those shows up on your lsmod, so I presume that your card does not
have a gameport.
If you have a midi in connection, there is another module snd-mpu401. I don't
have a midi in, but this may be the module that needs to be loaded.
modprobe snd-mpu401 (as root)
You also mentioned trying a usb midi keyboard. You will need to load another
module, snd-usb-audio , and where you put it to autoload at bootup, depends
on your distro, but a, modprobe snd-usb-audio , will load it. I use an
Evolution MK-225C usb midi keyboard.
With the snd-usb-audio module loaded Qjackctl shows my keyboard on the left
hand side, and whatever I want to connect it to, ZynAddSubFx, etc, on the
right. It does also show on the left side, Audigy MPU-401 (UART) , but this
is probably with reference to the gameport on the card that can be used to
play midi through, but I havn't used this.

These modules are for joysticks and have nothing to do with the MIDI

The MPU-401 modules are not needed, the emu10k1 driver hat its own code

Of course. None of this helps Esa with his Yamaha PSR-273 midi problems. Any

Thanks again for all, have tried every possible trick that you have gave
me. I guess the bracket isn't after all suitable for my Audigy 2 ZS.
From Creative help desk they told that bulk versions of Audigy are for
the big companies' like IBM and DELL, and therefore there might be some
modifications done - so that these cards work with their specs.
I am thinking about Edirol UM-1EX, which is a cheap midi/usb -cable, and
it seems that they work fine with linux & alsa.
But if I try once more..., should I check that BIOS settings are
correct? Sound Blaster enabled/disabled? PNP OS yes/no? Any hints?

Hi Esa. PNP OS in the BIOS is best set to NO. It didn't seem to make any

I already had the onboard soundcard disabled by jumpers on the mobo, and the
BIOS options were a bit vague. IIRC it stilled showed the physically disabled
onboard card as enabled.

solution as on my system this one is loaded and everything is working.
This is strange:
I tried with 2.6.14-0.mm.4mdk kernel and it returned "FATAL: no module
found"
after "modprobe snd-mpu401"
Then I tried with other kernel 2.6.14-0.mm.7mdk and it returned:
"FATAL: Error inserting snd-mpu401
(/lib/modules/2.6.14-0.mm.7mdk/kernel/sound/drivers/mpu401/snd-mpu401.ko.gz):
No such device"

Maybe try "modprobe snd-mpu401-uart"

Hi Esa. I don't know how you are getting on with this problem. snd-mpu401
should show up in, /lib/modules/your_kernel/sound/drivers/mpu401, if it is
there. I read there were some problems with snd-usb-audio in 2.6.14, and the
basic version of 2.6.15. In later revisions of 2.6.15 this problem is fixed.
Whether midi was involved I don't know, but it might be worth trying an
earlier version than 2.6.14, or if it is available for you, one of the later
revisions of 2.6.15. While your at it, see if you can modprobe snd-usb-audio
with your 2.6.14 kernel. It would be interesting to know if it works.
Nigel.
It looks very much like there is no communication
between the PSR and
the computer. Nigel mentioned the module snd-mpu401; this may be the
solution as on my system this one is loaded and everything is working.

Everything seems to be allright with midi, module
snd-seq-midi is
loaded, Rosegarden says Midi OK, audio OK. ZynAddSubFx works when
using
notation editor, but can't get PSR-273 keyboard to produce sound via
midi. I turned "PC mode" on from Yamaha, as the guidebook tells.
This "PC mode" is a switch on the back of the keyboard right? What are
the other options beside "PC mode"? I think you need "MIDI mode" (if
it's like my friend's Yamaha).
