I use a MidiMan 2x2 under Gentoo all the time. Works great. the 2x2 is not terribly expensive but it does use firmware that has to be downloaded so it's problematic to hook it up to a new machine the first time. After it's set up it's great. Anyway, no problems with Gentoo and MIDI. Good luck,

Thanks for such a detailed answer, Mark. This is tremendously useful. Could be a FAQ or an article, I imagine. Truthfully I have almost no electronic music background but am trying to learn on a budget. Inexpensive interfaces like the MidiMan and free Linux software are me to do this. Helpful

Hello all. I had asked about MIDI on Gentoo a while back and got some good advice. I've since tried to set up a *really* old MIDI device with horrific results. Bummer. I'm wondering if anything uses Gentoo and MIDI together at all? If so, could you please send me some details about
