Yes, 4Front doesn't support pro-audio apps, I guess. ;)) Ok, just joking, but it's true: most pro-audio apps need libasound and thus ALSA. > > Do you know of anything that is available for this purpose? The Surface one (is it out now?) has a simple Midi-out so it should be very well supported at least this way. The internal USB-device should be possible to support as well, as all other USB devices by M-Audio have good support and this should behave well, too. The EZ-Bus should be supported as well, at least the ezbus chipset reportedly works with the usb-audio driver (which includes Midi support.) In general one can say, that Midi support is the least of our problems on Linux. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
