hi pd-list!
Playing around with pd and Jack enabled, i can't figure out how to send midi to PD. Audio is sent&received OK through Jack but Jack doesn't see any midi in/out ports from PD. How can it be done? "pd -jack -listdev" replies "device listing not implemented for jack yet"
Latest version i tried was pd-0.37.0-3.cvs (from the ccrma archives) on a Fedora with ccrma kernel.
Thanks in advance! George F.
Hi Georgios,
I am not a linux user, so perhaps i should even try to anser this, but perhaps you should set a midi in & out device in pure data? On windows you go to the Media=>Midi settings menu to set it up.
Cheers Anton
gia,
I read:

jack is AFAIK audio only, it won't help you to route midi between apps you should load snd-virmidi, snd-seq and snd-pcm-oss that will give you oss midi emulation then you could use a tool like aconnect or alsa-patch-bay to connect virtual midi ports.

PD only supports raw midi devices yet. To make it routable you would have to use the snd-virmidi drive like this:
- modprobe snd-virmidi
- ln -s /dev/snd/midiC1D0 /dev/midi4
- pd -mididev 5
The pd output/input will show up in your alsa sequencer as port "Virmidi 1"
(Short version of Franks PD ALSA MIDI document .. which I can't find at the moment)
If you have more than one soundcard, you might have to adjust line 2) (change midiC1D0 to midiC2D0)
