Define usr-midi-bus and usr-instruments

Open laual opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

First of all, i wanna thank you for the work you've put in this beautiful piece of software.

Second, i wanna ask for your help as I'm really struggling to define usr-midi-bus and usr-instruments.

I've three pieces of hardware connected to my laptop: Traktor F1 (midi controller), Arturia Keystep (midi controller), Waldorf Blofeld.

I was under the impression that I would have to modify sequencer64.usr as follows:

[user-midi-bus-definitions]
2

[user-midi-bus-0]
Kontrol F1
1

[user-midi-bus-1]
Arturia Keystep
16
0 0
1 0
...

[user-instrument-definitions]
1

[user-instrument-0]
Waldorf Blofeld
128
0 ...

But none of it is working.

I'm still seeing the MIDI-Through port and both controllers are still showing up in the midi output bus...

Could you provide some help as to how I should go about it?

Thanks in advance!

Laurent

I'm coming quite late, but I discovered yesterday that what is being passed in [usr-midi-bus] has an effect only when using Alsa Midi instead of Native Jack (with_jack_midi in the rc file), maybe that was your issue?

Hmmm, another thing to look into! It seems like a bug to me! Will investigate as time allows. Thanks for these reports! Very helpful!
