Good to know midisport is still ok, but are there no other devices running on linux? grtz, Bart http://www.bartart3d.be/ 2011/2/23 Pablo Fernández > El 22/02/11 15:21, bart deruyter escribió: > > Hi all, > > I've got a usb2midi device, that works quite well, though there is a bit of > a latency problem when recording.

recommended midi hub?
Hi all, I've got a usb2midi device, that works quite well, though there is a bit of a latency problem when recording. It's a midisport2x2. That's not the only problem I have with it, it is limited to 2 midi ports. I'd like to have more midi devices connected to my PC, like my guitar effects, which could be controlled by a sequencer, or the other way round, the effects pedal controlling rakarrack. I already have both midi ports connected, one to a digital drum and another to a keyboard, but in the future I'd like to add more instruments and midi controlled tools. To be able to expand enough, I'd be thinking of a 6x6 or even 8x8 midi hub, if that exists, and is possible without noticeable latency. Which brands are certainly working very well in ubuntustudio? I already had to face a disappointment with my audiofire 12, which has a midi port, in and out, but is not reachable through jack, though the FFADO site reported the audiofire to be 100% supported.
