Thank you all for your responses.
I had not thought of configuring the same instrument on all channels in zyn.
That actually works, but it takes quite a bit of time :-)
Is these a way to do so by a script?
Below I include the output from aseqdump in different situations to help
illustrate how the MPE works.
First: disabling x, y and z sensitivity, just repeating the same note
shows the MPE cycling the channels:
Source Event Ch Data
24:0 Note on 14, note 60, velocity 100
24:0 Note off 14, note 60, velocity 64
24:0 Note on 15, note 60, velocity 103
24:0 Note off 15, note 60, velocity 64
24:0 Note on 1, note 60, velocity 107
24:0 Note off 1, note 60, velocity 64
24:0 Note on 2, note 60, velocity 123
24:0 Note off 2, note 60, velocity 64
Next, enabling only z-sensitivity (pressure), playing a single note
once, gives:
Source Event Ch Data
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 0
24:0 Note on 3, note 60, velocity 60
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 9
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 104
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 117
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 120
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 123
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 124
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 125
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 126
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 127
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 110
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 78
24:0 Channel aftertouch 3, value 0
24:0 Note off 3, note 60, velocity 64
Enabling only y-sensitivity, playing a note while moving upward on the
pad gives this (abbreviated):
Source Event Ch Data
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 17
24:0 Note on 10, note 60, velocity 38
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 19

... (removed 34 lines)
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 117
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 121
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 124
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 126
24:0 Control change 10, controller 74, value 127
24:0 Note off 10, note 60, velocity 64
Enabling only x-sensitivity and sliding up one octave gives the output
below (abbreviated)

Finally, enabling x-, y- and z-sensitivity (std configuration), holding
down one note while doing the slide up one octave with the other hand
gives quite a lot of information.

An important factor for me in deciding to buy the LinnStrument was that
the entire firmware is free software:
https://github.com/rogerlinndesign/linnstrument-firmware
- that does not hold for an Ipad as far as I know.
The developer of the firmware, Geert Bevin, has described some of the
lessons learned here:
http://www.slideshare.net/gbevin/linnstrument-the-ultimate-opensource-hacker-instrument
I think it would be really cool to be able to play this "open source
instrument" with free software tools.
In any case I'll be happy to test and report back if you come up with
more ideas to try.
All the best,
Thomas
