I haven't yet used it, and think alsa midi works just fine.

Try to do a faster-than-realtime midiproject mixdown to audio without jackmidi and show your results.2) With alsa midi (or any other non-sample syncronous midi transport)every application in fact implements jackmidi by itself (by having anon-trivial midi handling thread).3) Even if 2) is OK for you, it can't reach jackmidi in terms ofinter-application timing. And I'd also like to hear a quick hand up: Who's using jack midi> exclusively and who's using alsa midi?jackmidi still lacks that range of software that alsamidi has.Nonetheless, starting a new midi project without jackmidi support is a sabotage.
