hello ( i am the 'a friend' as mentioned in the original post) thanks for the reply, ...however our original query was based around the desire to have a fully functioning midi tracker for linux, with sampling ability not even really being a necessity......(cheese tracker doesnt even support midi out at this stage..). I just find it a bit strange that no tracker for linux has midi in support (as for me this is very very useful when composing melodies etc when using a tracker..).
So has anyone attempted any midi input code that would be suitable for use with a tracker? Any reason why not? Or has anyone any plans to? or any other thoughts on the subject?? cheers, jordan..
