I have an Alesis SR-16 drum machine that I want to control with muse (or seq24) via midi. the SR-16 plugs into my EchoAudio AudioFire12 (AF12) midi ports. My computer is running Fedora 10 CCRMA. I'm using jack, a2jmidi, and muse. I'm not sure where I'm confused - I may have Muse, jack, or a2jmidi misconfigured. It's easier to show than describe how the jack patch is configured. In FIGURE1 you can see the jack audio is configured and connected. Everything works perfectly there, I can record audio with Ardour all day without problems. http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm262/troutpocket/figure1.jpg When I look at the midi tab I see FIGURE2. Then I start 'a2jmidid -e' and see FIGURE3. Then I start Muse and see FIGURE4. The final configurations in the alsa tab are in FIGURE5. Disregard the connections as they're made in the pictures. http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm262/troutpocket/figure2.jpg http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm262/troutpocket/figure3.jpg http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm262/troutpocket/figure4.jpg http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm262/troutpocket/figure5.jpg Here's the output from 'a2jmidid -e' [fed@f10 ~]$ a2jmidid -e JACK MIDI <-> ALSA sequencer MIDI bridge, version 4 (123) built on Wed Dec 31 16:00:00 1969 Copyright 2006,2007 Dmitry S. Baikov Copyright 2007,2008 Nedko Arnaudov Bridge starting... Using JACK server 'default' Hardware ports will be expored. port created: Midi Through (capture): Midi Through Port 0 port created: Midi Through (playback): Midi Through Port 0 Bridge started Press ctrl-c to stop the bridge Once this is all said and done... I need to configure Muse with the correct settings. Sync Mode: Master? Midi Song Type: GM? O-Port: qjackctl or Midi Through Port-0? I believe the general midi drum map in muse is pretty much the same layout as in the SR-16. I'd love to use seq24 but for the life of me I can't figure out how to place notes on the piano-roll, and it only shows notes instead of the drum map. Anyway, I'm massively confused by too many choices here. Any help is very much appreciated. -Scott _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
