I've got 2 PCI slots and two Envy24 PCI cards. I guess that most other PCI audio cards ship with a MIDI interface too, but I'm not sure if the MIDI jitter will fit to my needs. Fortunately Jack2 from svn (jackd --sync -Xalsarawmidi -dalsa ...) + my Envy24 cards do fit to my needs regarding to MIDI jitter, but audio doesn't ;). I do have a Swissonic USB device, but I avoid to use any USB device when making music, perhaps I'm wooed by fad ;), I even disable USB card reader by my session-handling-scripts (sudo killall -9 -w pcscd ;). No USB mouse, keyboard or printer etc. here. To be honset, I didn't tested zthe USB MIDI with current Jack2. Anyway, thank you very much, Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
