Hi, > I'm having difficulty understanding what the difference is between jack > midi clients and alsa sequencer midi clients. hehe :) . ALSA just is a driver layer. Formerly, it has been (ab)used to in- and output audio as well as MIDI. Which is not the job of a driver IMHO. JACK has been introduced as a low latency *audio* driver, but it *didn't* support MIDI. Thus we ran audio via JACK but MIDI via ALSA sequencer. Weird enough? Yes, it is. So meanwhile JACK finally supports MIDI besides audio. If you want to, ALSA sequencer MIDI clients are just deprecated. > Sorry to be bombarding as an organist, I never read the verb "bombarding".

Maybe you'll be the first one who puts the things you earned into some wiki page for documentation purposes :) .
