Hello, everyone -- Newbie alert! I don't have any sort of external MIDI equipment. Just as the subj. line indicates, a fairly ordinary PC setup, a few years out of date (Celeron 400MHz, 128 MB RAM, ATI Rage 128 card and SoundBlaster 16 PCI card). With this setup, all I can figure out how to do so far is to use timidity to play MIDI files. I can use Rosegarden to export my "scores" to a MIDI file, but I don't know how set up a virtual sequencer, or what /dev file to specify in Rosegarden's sequencer configuration. When I try to put in /dev/midi, *midi0, *sequencer, *audio, *dsp, *whatever, it tells me "no such device" or unable to access or something. But this is not just a Rosegarden question -- will I be able to use any synthesizers or sequencers without a "real" device to specify? Would the solution involve symlinks, or named pipes, or other things I've never yet explored? Thanks for any tips, Mark ===== -- Seek professional help!
