Hi again,

what is currently the best (least jitter, reliable) way to bridge alsa
and jack midi?
JACK's option -Xseq will include all hardware MIDI devices (including USB MIDI). I never even had plug-and-play problems.

The goal is rather simple, I want to be able to use my e-piano
(connected through USB) to play aeolus. Or rather allow a friend of
mine who actually knows how to play church organ to play it.
What's wrong with Aeolus' ALSA midi port? My .aeolusrc doesn't even contain -A and still gives me an ALSA midi port in addition to the JACK midi port.

...
I got it to work somewhat using 'a2jmidi -e' but it turned out to be
rather unreliable. When I ran jack with a rather low latency setting
and got the first xrun a2jmidid crashed. Yes, xruns shouldn't happen
and there are some more thing I could do to avoid them, but programs
still shouldn't crash once an xrun occurs.
a2jmidi works fine here, when I have to use it. Very reliably and accurately.llly.
...
