Thanks Q, but my Clavia keyboard can't transpose outgoing notes, so I tried to find qmidiroute. No Debian package exists, so I extracted the binary from Ubuntu's qmidiroute_0.2.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb and it works perfectly under Debian/squeeze. The last problem was to get a realtime-kernel. Alas Debian has no RT-kernel distributed (top of my personal wishlist in Debian!!!) :-/ But a nice person packaged a rt-kernel here (thanks a lot!): http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux2/kernel-rt-highmem/linux-image-2.6.29.4-rt15-rt_2.6.29.4-rt15-rt-10.00.Custom_i386.deb which I found mentioned in the ardour forum: http://ardour.org/node/2653#comment-12674 I had a running linux-image-2.6.29-2-686 and installed linux-image-2.6.29.4-rt15-rt_2.6.29.4-rt15-rt-10.00.Custom_i386.deb with dpkg -i. Grub and initramfs were updated automatically. The only configuration I did was /etc/security/limits.conf: ... @audio - memlock 512000 @audio - rtprio 99 @audio - nice -10 # End of file Realtime now works on my Asus eeebox (similar to eeepc). I plan to dual-boot with this RT-kernel only for making music with my keyboard. In all other cases I will use/boot the stock Debian kernel. MrRay73.dll with dssi-vst runs fast and without any xruns on this setup. Only some noise from the mainboard (hd-controller?) pollutes the line-output. In the long run an external usb-soundcard should do the job. A harder test seems to be the fabulous pianoteq piano, which was released recently as native linux software (bravo!). I installed the demo today on my new setup and it runs, but I have to read a little about optimizing jackd and RT, as it uses more ressources. - oz _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
