Perhaps you need a midi loopback device? This allows you to send midi data between different programs on the same machine.
I've never tried using it under linux, but I'm pretty sure there is support for it in the kernel... somewhere :) (I think it's referred to as VMIDI, and it's listed in the config section as "Midi Loopback Device" under "Sound").

i was wondering if is there something in linux similar to QuickTime. i need to acess a built in synth ... those of you who know max might know the qt object by david z. which acesses qt synth ... am i dreaming ? or do i have to purchase a synth and noteout it ?
thanks, sier.
