what program can I use to dump midi in a sort of human readable format? I mean in the real time, reading from midi port, I don't mean the midi file conversion (even though I guess there's not much difference). Here's why I need it, my (off topic) problem (a bonus Q:-): I just connected yamaha drum pad (DD-55) to front panel (liveDrive?) of sb live platinum. It actually sort of works (I couldn't get it work with older versions of alsa) and after loading soundfonts and aconnect 64:0 65:0 I can hear the drumpad, but only what it plays itself (demo, songs, rhythms), when I hit the pad the sound is VERY soft, I can barely hear it (at normal volume I can only barely hear crash cymbal and hi-hat). So I'd like to check what is being sent out by the drum pad (whether the volume is so low or there's some other problem). Of course, I'd appreciate if anybody offered some insights into this problem... TIA erik
