Hi, FWIW when I tested the Linux branch a long time ago the app behaved different to the Windows branch. I can't comment on the OP's MIDI issues. Indeed USB MIDI is a PITA related to galvanic isolation and jitter. To get rid of extra jitter caused by USB I'm in favour of PCI/PCIe cards. However, to get galvanic isolation, even an USB audio device can be used, just don't connect two devices directly via USB, use 5 pin DIN connectors. An audio device, with audio IOs and 5 pin DIN MIDI connectors should...

Hi, FWIW on bare metal my desktop PCs run Linux only. While I have got several Windows version running as guests in virtual machines and while I also have got the Linux branch of gr-55_floorboard installed, I only used windows branches running on wine. I'm not up to date, at the moment the installed Linux version is 2020-4. By different wine prefixes two versions are installed, 2018-4 and 2020-4. At the moment I'm on $ pacman -Q wine-staging wine-staging 8.9.1-1 Over the time I used several versions...

Please, consider to sign the checksums. Unsigned checksums are moot.

PS: I just noticed that the current version is 2020-07.

Intresting, I'm on Arch Linux, but I also maintain a minimal Ubuntu 16.04 install. The last time I used GR-55 FloarBoard, the stable version was ruinning on wine-staging, 2018-04. The Linux version at that time was a PITA to me. I've got 2020-04 for wine-staging and the native Linux version available, too, but never tested those versions.
