What I'm dreaming of is configuring my sequencer to output to just one alsa sequencer port. On that port is one "logical" bank of all the "logical" instruments I use (just instrument names, only). The piece of software listening on this port is to associate each instrument with a synthesiser, and most importantly, can be reconfigured by selecting a different profile if I unplug my laptop from an external synth and am forced to use a software synth temporarily. I am a roaming midi user. Are there any solutions already to this problem? What do you guys do to manage your instruments? Ryan
