My son, Evan, is into computers and music. He's got an electronic piano that he says has MIDI out. All our computers are running Linux. I know basically nothing about MIDI. Does anyone have any experience hooking these up?
I decided there must be such a thing as a MIDI/USB adapter, but looking them up they mention drivers and stuff. 'apt-cache search midi usb' finds 2 hits, one of which is about temperature sensors(?). Is there some standard I should be looking for? Will any of the MIDI-supporting packages be able to read from the USB port? What, basically, is the deal with Linux and MIDI? (Also, is that maddog that I see cruising around with the "FREESW" real license plate and "LINUX" fake one?) _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
