Ok if the Edirol keyboards support standard MIDI then there shouldn't be any problems using them under Linux, but since USB has a much bigger bandwidth than serial MIDI, I that the timing for notes that belong to large chords is more precise. Can someone confirm this ? BTW: the Midiman site lists Linux as an OS in their driver search page but nothing comes up when searching for product drivers. Is their stance very closed ? Do they not even release specs ? cheers, Benno -- http://linuxsampler.sourceforge.net Building a professional grade software sampler for Linux. Please help us designing and developing it.
