sakrecoer_what is the difference between the midi tab and the alsa tab in JACK connection window?18:59
sakrecoer_some apear in alsa, some apear in midi...18:59
sakrecoer_i remember there is a command to enable some bridge at jack start up... a2jmidi..19:00
sakrecoer_a2jmidi_bridge. i get it! its... a bridge between jack midi and alsa midi19:01
sakrecoer_lets say i want to route qmidiarp to phasex. how would i proceed?19:06
sakrecoer_i can't find a way to connect qmidiarp that shows up in the midi tab of jack, to phasex that shows up in the alsa tab of jack...19:09
sakrecoer_i can however send notes from the virtual keyboard that show up in the alsa tab, to qmidiarp that shows up in the midi tab via a2jmidi_bridge19:11
sakrecoer_ahaaaaa j2amidi_bridge!!! elementary dear wattson!19:14
sakrecoer_wow!! the sudden and revived urge to make music with software!!!!19:15
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: the MIDI tab only shows ports that are jack MIDI and are therefore sample aligned with the audio. This is also (in the past) the only place firewire MIDI ports would show up. I am not so sure now that there are ALSA firewire drivers.19:22
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: The ALSA tab shows only port that are available directly from ALSA (Alsa-sequencer actually I think).19:23
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: the alsa-seq timing has been whidely known to be the worst option.19:23
OvenWerkssakrecoer_: From a programming perspective, the Jack API has proved the easiest to learn. This is what I used for http://www.ovenwerks.net/software/midikb.html and http://www.ovenwerks.net/software/mcpdisp.html19:25
sakrecoer_thanks OvenWerks !!! i'm blAsted away... i knew it was possible, but having my gear, i've only fiddled with audio recording... i have HW sequencer...19:27
sakrecoer_now i'm sitting here, with a calf monosynth, a phasex, hexter hydrogene kicking beats on built in audiocard, and the processor isn't even reaching 20%!!!!19:29
sakrecoer_evrything in perfect synch!19:29
sakrecoer_OvenWerks: are there any GUI from which i can start a2j and j2a?20:22
sakrecoer_i'm fine with cli.. i'm just thinking in terms of goodguy propaganda...20:32
sakrecoer_looks like gladish could do it... :)20:38
OvenWerksgladish kinda takes over everything21:12
