i'm going to write a software sampler for linux, that receives MIDI notes from my MIDI-Interface.
does exists something similar to this, before i go to "re-create the wheel"? in case of no: i think i'll use portaudio for the audio engine... but what library can i use for handle incoming midi events? i tried the first example in the Development section of the MIDI_HOWTO, but doesn't works. i looked at ALSA, and (excluding that i miss part of the documentation) i am a bit confused... any suggestions? thanks in advance (excuse me 4 my poor english)
