Just think about when your computer locks up and the Caps-lock key doesn't light anymore :) That should be a clear indication that something from the CPU side is controlling it. I think all keyboards have an 8051 microcontroller in them, I had initially thought that it did all the processing o

Hi Here's my take on (the solution to) the problem. It's another alsa sequencer client, heavily based on Dr. Matthias Nagorni's example. It has one input port, and 16 output ports - one for each midi channel. Personally, i find it a bit more convenient (for myself ;-). http://westwood.mine.nu
