I too was trying to get multiple midi devices to
record on their own tracks (rather then just one),
without this feature recording as a band is
impossible. This would be a good feature, I was
suprised it wasn't in there.

MIDI recording work?

Hi all,  
 
I'm hopping in here for a quick note on my own setup.
But before that, I  
wanted to tell you guys that I just finished an album
a few weeks ago,  
using Rosegarden for Midi and Ardour for Audio. I got
a few annoying  
bugs and crashes (using old versions, though, I got a
little  
conservative close to the end of the work, not wanting
any upgrade cause  
any new weird behaviour), but on the whole, Rosegarden
is really usable.  
So thanks a lot : free audio and music software is
what keeps me on Linux.  
 
Anyway : I have three synths, patched together with a
UM-550 from  
Edirol, connected via USB to my computer. That little
devil gives me no  
less than 5 midi inputs, but Rosegarden will only let
me record one  
synth at a time, and I have to get down to changing
the default record  
device in the midi-setup dialog, which kind of sucks.
I'd really like to  
be able to record several synths at the same time
(Midi, that is).  
 
So I guess that makes me a supporter of the "each
track has it's own  
input device and channel" solution, next to the
"output device and  
channel".  
 
UI : Have a setting somewhere that says "default input
device and  
channel", which gets copied for each new track. Maybe
set each new track  
to the same device but with a different channel, which
would make it  
easy to record using a MIDI-oriented master keyboard
(like my RD-700).  
 
Cheers, and thanks again.  
 
Carl
