I tried about every connection possible in qjackctl. I can connect RG to timidity and get sound easily - though the sound it horribly distorted - so something isn't right with vmpk or how I'm using it. Has anyone conected RG to vmpk?

Unfortunately I don't think it accepts an input like from RG, otherwise it'd be perfect . At least I looked hard and couldn't find any inputs. I was able to connect kmid to my Korg though, so its at least an alternative to RG for me if it indeed doesn't have any inputs.
