hello everyone,

After some research I have found that I can connect a controller through aconnect when pd is already running. This was not the case a couple versions ago (of everything, pd, alsa, and OS; I am in a different computer so I can't tell what those versions are exactly).

Is there any way that one can make these connections through Pd directly?

currently, I have to list all devices with aconnect -i, then make a connection with aconnect 24 129 where 24 is the sender device and 129 is the software input...

Not sure how this changed, but it seems problematic for automated loading of patches. Any workarounds?

best,

J

Hi all,

I am trying to get a usb midi foot controller (logidy UMI3) in Pd.

This same controller works flawlessly in a different ubuntu machine (older version), but I cannot get it to work in the latest ubuntu, latest pd, etc.

I have made sure that alsa_seq is running and tried multiple ports.

Anyone have any suggestions on what else to try ??

thanks,

J
