Re: [Linuxsampler-devel] Set MIDI Input patch

[Vladimir S. <ha...@so...>]

Hi Rui,

I'm not sure why you couldn't see alsa ports created. I've tried this 
last night several times and it was working ok.
Try this:
CREATE MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE Alsa
OK[0]
SET MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_PARAMETER 0 ports=1

So AcquirePorts is called when the "ports" parameter is set. I've 
discussed it with Christian and although not yet documented (spec needs 
updating) ports are supposed to be created and removed similarly to 
audio channels via the above SET command.

Once port is created, you can use these commands:
GET MIDI_INPUT_PORT INFO 0 0
SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 alsa_seq_bindings='64:0'

Let me know how it goes.

Regards,
Vladimir.
