Hello;
I'm interested in setting up midi and sound recording gear on a Linux system. There is a program I'm interested in getting installed and using called Rosegarden. I also have to contend with the availability of Linux compatible midi interfaces (which is a blurred subject as far as my research into availability is concerned) My question to the FreeBSD mailing list is: if I use FreeBSD with its Linux compatibility, how do I deal with drivers (for midi inter faces, for instance) and installation. Is there an area of ports for Linux software, specifically Rosegarden or something that will do audio recording, midi sequencing, audio/midi sync, and has a good score editor that
will print sheet music?



You can check here http://www.freebsd.org/ports/
on ports you are looking, Your Rosegarden is listed.

Note that the Rosegarden project refers to the 2.1 series that's in our ports as "antique." The latest Rosegarden requires ALSA to work.

To the OP, MIDI support on FreeBSD is non-existent aside from some kernel patches that turn up every now and then. If you need hardware MIDI support you need to use Linux, Windows, or OSX.

HTH,
Micah
