For midi output I've been using timidity running in alsa server mode which sounds great but seems to suck enough cpu to make midi recording spotty. What I'd like to do is use the card's opl3 capability which to the best of my knowledge it has (correct me if I'm wrong, please).
Following the instructions on the pmidi page (http://www.parabola.demon.co.uk/alsa/pmidi.html), I see: # sbiload -l Port Client name Port name 64:0 External MIDI 0 MIDI 0-0 65:0 OPL3 FM synth OPL3 Port 72:0 Virtual Raw MIDI 1-0 VirMIDI 1-0 73:0 Virtual Raw MIDI 1-1 VirMIDI 1-1 74:0 Virtual Raw MIDI 1-2 VirMIDI 1-2 75:0 Virtual Raw MIDI 1-3 VirMIDI 1-3 128:0 Client-128 TiMidity port 0 128:1 Client-128 TiMidity port 1 129:0 MusE Sequencer MusE Port 0 131:0 iiwu iiwu-1 Then I dutifully run: # sbiload -p65:0 --opl3 std.o3 drums.o3 where std.o3 and drums.o3 are in the current directory. When I: pmidi -p65:0 some-midi-file.mid I get no sound. Any clues?
