I have an external midi controller (just a keyboard with midi out, no sound) and I would like to use it to control sb live! internal synth. Back in the old times aconnect 64:0 65:0 used to do the trick but now it doesn't seem to be working.
the following works: pmidi -p 65:0 jazz.mid so I guess midi is working ok, the soundfonts are loaded etc. here's what aconnect says (after aconnect 64:0 65:0): erik@cert:~/tmp/midi$ aconnect -i -l -o client 0: 'System' [type=kernel] 0 'Timer ' 1 'Announce ' Connecting To: 63:0 client 64: 'External MIDI 0' [type=kernel] 0 'MIDI 0-0 ' Connecting To: 65:0 client 65: 'Emu10k1 WaveTable' [type=kernel] 0 'Emu10k1 Port 0 ' Connected From: 64:0, 128:0 1 'Emu10k1 Port 1 ' 2 'Emu10k1 Port 2 ' 3 'Emu10k1 Port 3 ' client 128: 'Client-128' [type=user] 0 'port-0 ' Connecting To: 65:0 so it shows that 64:0 is connected to 65:0 but I hear no sound when I play keyboard. the keyboard is plugged in into 'midi in' connector on front panel (it works in windows so HW is OK). btw the 128:0 is the pmidi, once the pmidi stop 128:0 disappears but midi thru is still not working. what's the secret?
