Yes, you would need those in any case, either separately or as part of an audio interface. >> https://www.amazon.com/HDE-Synthesizer-Microphone-Instrument-Converter/dp/B00D3QFHN8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8 >> > > Will this cheap interface work as "MIDI card" under Linux? Yes, but really cheap ones like the one I linked often garble longer sysex messages, but they work ok for normal, non-sysex messages. > Another idea: the iPad also has something called Network MIDI via WiFi. > Is that the same thing as rtpMIDI? Yes, but no ;) It is Apple's "embrace-and-extend" version of RTP-MIDI, for which there is no known Linux implementation, unfortunately (nor much technical documentation). > I found some sources in the internet but did not quite understand > how to set this up. Because to my knowledge it isn't possible (yet). There are standards compliant RTP-MIDI implementations for Linux, but they don't implement the session establishing protocol, which Apple bolted on, and without this, they are rather useless. > Is there something like that for Linux? Yes, but no ;) There are solutions for sending/receiving MIDI over the network for Linux, but none of them interoperate with the so-called "Apple network MIDI". There is an Apple-compatible implementation/driver for Windows and a library for Android, but both are not Open Source. This is my knowledge from how matters stood a few years back. AFAIK nothing has changed materially in this regard, but if I'm wrong, I would be happily corrected.
