do you have midi-ports in your soundcard? In some cases they are implemented as 5-pol Din plugs (MIDI-standard plugs), in other cases they are implemented via the gameport. Most built-in soundhardware has none. If you have those ports, the most simple (but not best) solution is to connect midi in with midi out, have rosegarden play through midi out and the synth listen to midi in. Afaik(!) alsa has virtual midi-ports, you can use, if you have no hw ports (and which would be more elegant to use), but I have no experience with them. May I ask, why you don't want to use jack? I use it for everything in my studio and I am very happy with it. There's a reason jack is everywhere in this area :) > > Best regards, > mcc Hth, Michael > Michael Schreckenbauer <grim...@gmx.de> [11-08-11 02:45]: > > Hi Meino, > > > > Am Dienstag, 9.
