I've heard rumors that some versions of Jazz++ are rather buggy. I think it doesn't work with ALSA 0.9.x at all (independent of the sound card). > And if someone has a suggest for a simple midi recorder which actually > compiles, well that'd be nice too.

Music software is a niche market, and MIDI even more so. There isn't much overlap between musicians and (open source) programmers. > Matter of fact, why is midi so unsupported in linux. That's the Unix approach: "cat /dev/midi > somefile", then edit it in vi. ;-) HTH Clemens ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
