Hello everyone, Years ago I bought a dumb MIDI keyboard ( Target TRG-MK10 ), dumb in the sense that it doesn't generate sounds itself, it uses the soundcard for that. The software that I used back in the days I used Windows was KeyWest from Evolution Electronics. It was an el-cheapo keyboard and simple software, but for some casual playing music it was a nice combination.
Now maybe a year ago I did an attempt to get the keyboard to work with Linux, but the best I could get was with software synthesizer ( don't know anymore what software exactly I was using ), but it didn't really sound smooth, so I gave up. Now I want to try again, I hope you have some ideas to make it work. Questions : - My soundcard is a VIA 82C686A, integrated in the MSI K7T Pro ( KT133 ) motherboard. Does this card have synthesizer hardware inside ? - If it has synthesizer hardware, how to make use of it ? - If it doesn't, which software synthesis can I best use ? - Or should I buy a better sound card, even for casual playing music ? P.S. Hope I used the right terminology, I'm far from a MIDI expert :-) Best regards, Eric ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
