Hey hey, I have an issue - again with Yoshimi and the commandline MIDI sequencer Midish. Yoshimi will not receive any notes from Midish, though the connection is made, as seen by a message on the Yoshimi commandline. Midish uses the ALSA Sequencer API, but only offers the port when it is running. Midish does work fine with LinuxSampler, hardware and setBfree. I don't know which of the two, Yoshimi or Midish, does something special to prevent them from working together. Will, if you'd like to test it, I have seen the midish is available as a package in Debian and Ubuntu. On Arch it is in AUR. Here's the simplest test: bash prompt # rmidish [within midish] dnew 0 "name of your keyboard under aconnect -li" ro dnew 1 "yoshimi" wo inew keyboard {0 0} onew yosh {1 0} tnew test_track fnew test_filt fmap {any keyboard} {any yosh} tsetf test_filt r [play notes on your keyboard] s [stops recording] p [should play the notes back] s exit [press enter twice, if Midish doesn't quit immediately] Sorry, it's a long list of commands, but you should be able to copy them verbatim, except for the alsa SEQ name of your input device. Any idea what might be happening? I can see the connects and disconnects, but nothing more.
