Just wondering if any of you are using an Akai Ewi4000s as a midi controller on a linux box. Success (or lack)? I'd like to give it a go, but I'm wondering what synth would be best, setup, etc. I've tried a synth on linux before (many years) with limited success ... surely things have improved! I've tried running a keyboard off the EWI but it's quite useless to do so ... I think the breath controller messages get in the way? Thanks. -- **** Listen to my CD at http://www.mellowood.ca/music/cedars **** Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bob(a)mellowood.ca WWW: http://www.mellowood.ca _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
