Worked with 3.4 for a bit. The Midi tracks are working well. Set up one to use Calf MonoSynth and one to use an external hardware synth. I had to j2amidi_bridge to send Midi notes over to the Alsa side that the hardware synths come in on and also to connect a usb/midi keyboard to the jack port side. Is there a better way to do this?
I haven't recorded anything yet, but it all seems to work pretty well so far and running very smoothly. After I get used to working with the new MIDI editing parts, It looks very promising.
