I've had one for ages and it's been flawless. They have a very good reputation both on the audio and MIDI sides. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.

My card is Edirol-FA66. On the FFADO project page you may find cards which are fully supported (along with others reported as working or partially supported): http://ffado.org/?q=devicesupport/list If you're looking for a firewire device, I would recommend fa-66, however there are a few more out there working reliable and stable as well. -- Write once.

Personally, I've had much better results out of USB MIDI dongles than with internal cards. Out of three cards I've used, all three have had their MIDI driver broken by routine maintenance updates of the kernel. My USB dongle, however, has never failed to work perfectly. Mine was discontinued a long time ago, so I can't make specific recommendations as to what new options are available out there. In general, though, the USB audio driver, which includes USB MIDI support, seems to be more solid than average. -- D. Michael McIntyre -- Write once. Port to many.

Any of the M-Audio or RME PCI cards can handle this (Firewire device support is limited on Linux). There are also dedicated external MIDI adaptors like M-Audio MIDISport 1x1 that can taking standard MIDI In and send it via USB to your machine. -- Brett W.

[Rosegarden-user] MIDI card for Linux
I know this isn't a Linux support forum, but are any of the Linux users happy with a particular sound card that provides incoming MIDI support? I have an old CASIO keyboard with standard IN/OUT MIDI ports, and wanted to try streaming MIDI into Rosegarden. -- frigidcode.com theologia.indicium.us signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Write once.
