Apparently, this device doesn't conform to the USB MIDI specification. Please uncomment the "#define DUMP_PACKETS" in line 58 or so of sound/usb/usbmidi.c, recompile the snd-usb-audio driver, and show what the driver writes to the system log when such note-on messages are received. (Warning: the driver will dump all packets, including those containing active sensing messages.) > Slightly OT: I would like to test this in windows, to prove that the > device really is broken, but I can't get any sounds from it or my MK. > Does anyone know of a free software synthesizer for windows which will > play sounds from a midi instrument? You should be able to use any sequencer to connect a MIDI input port to Windows' built-in software synth.
