Yes it raw. But it's sent by the sequcenser within alsa. So the state is there. This is the configuration: Roland MCR-8->midi-device->alsa-seq->user_code->alsa-seq->raw_midi So how far back should I need to reset? The communication roland and alsa-seq is in sync and my user-land code is sending snd_seq_event_t. I guess that my problem will disapear if I turn active-sening-on and that is what I going to try. > > it sounds as if you should issue a full MIDI reset sequence when you > open the device (all notes off on every channel, reset all controllers > to a default value, restore all programs to a known state, etc.) > That will not help my reading. The device is in sync with alsaseq and there shuld not be needed to reset the transmitter. And even if I do. The merge of midi streams could be smart enough to see that it is of the same type. > > --p -- foo! _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
