Hi List,
i just found that jack rack has a midi control, which i would like touse from within PD.
Has anyone successfully tried this ??
I wonder if i need "patchage" or if there is another jack-capable midi ptchbay ??
Cheers Luigi

The last I know is, that Jack still doesn't do midi, probably Jackrack is using "normal" midi through the ALSA sequencer. You can use any ALSA midi sequencer to create connections between applications then. qjackctl also has an ALSA sequencer patchbay (which has *nothing* to do with Jack, though). If you use a newer Pd with ALSA midi support, you should be able to see both Jackrack and Pd in the midi patchbay part of qjackctl, for older Pds you can do a workaround using the snd-virmidi virtual midi card.
Or use [plugin~] and don't fiddle with all this at all.

ALSA MIDI Patchbay ...hmmmmm
have to do some research about that, is that a terminal programm that i can run ? Or is it just a hidden lib somewhere ??

No..i dont want ;-)
I was thinking to just run one or more instances of alsaplyer through jack-rack and control it from pd..not too much pd-hacking for things that run fine ;-)

All 0.39 AFAIK have ALSA midi support, 0.38 can be made to support ALSA midi with a patch that you can download in the Sourceforge Bugtracker.

You can use qjackctl's ALSA midi patchbay for example. If you prefer a terminal program, the tool to use is "aconnect". Also check out http://footils.org/cms/show/24

and this is alsa (oh, this should read "also") available as an external "aconnect" (check out the CVS-version under externals/iem/aconnect) there is even a kind of (not _fully_ functional) graphical patch-bay done in pd (and a bit of zexy)
