Hi Nathaniel,
You should be able to get JACK transport to respond to your midi controller
using jackctlmmc now:
Could you test this using your Axiom and let me know if you can move around
using your rotary controllers or other transport controls?
Thanks,

Hello,
I'm working on an upgrade to jackctlmmc that will respond to Midi Machine
Control locate messages and control JACK transport directly. The current
version of MMC supports start, stop, and rewind (to zero). However, rewind
will not work for many devices in its current form because many devices use
the locate (command 44) MMMC control. Once I'm done, you'll be able to slave
Rosegarden and hydrogen (or Ardour or any JACK transport compliant
application) to JACK transport and it will all work well. It's nearly done,
(it's responding correctly to my BR 900CD digital 8-track) and I will check
it into Nedko's git repository early next week.
If you don't want to wait, I believe that Rosegarden can directly slave to
MMC commands, but I don't believe it can then in turn control other
applications. Jackctlmmc is currently a very simple command line utility,
but I am already working on a nice multi-threaded QT version that will be
graphical and pretty, but that might take some time.

I just picked up an M-Audio Axiom 61 midi
controller. Out of the box I can
cycle through patches in qsynth with it, and send pitch bend messages.
Another nice feature of this controller is that it has transport controls,
and a large selection of slider, and rotary controllers. I hooked it up to
aseqdump and it sends good messages over to my linux box. I'm wondering what
my options are for binding the midi messages from the transport control, to
the jack transport. If it matters, I usually use rosegarden/hydrogen for my
midi work. Controlling qsynth/fluidsynth with the sliders and knobs would be
nice as well.
Thanks,
Nathanael
