This is a "raw MIDI" port, which is what the hardware drivers implement. Application ports and merging are implemented in the ALSA sequencer on top of that. > VP does not show up in qjackctl however and once connected to the HDSP > I can no longer make a connection between the UMX490 (readable client) > and the Hammerfall DSO (writable client) in order to play the synth. > The HDSP seems to be fully occupied. When a program uses raw MIDI directly, these features are not available. As a workaround, load the snd-virmidi kernel module, which creates virtual raw MIDI ports that are then available as sequencer ports. Connect VP to that, and then connect snd-virmidi's equivalent sequencer port to the actual device.
