Hi!

I'm searching for good alternatives to Midi Yoke and Loopbe1 virtual midi ports. I can't get them to work on wine so I wonder if there's a native linux alternative to use instead. Anyone?

Cheers

The amidi -p virtual -d command in a terminal creates a virtual MIDI port.

sudo modprobe snd-virmidi

edit: BTW you should work the other way around. FIRST you try an Linux native possibility and then, if you need it, an Second option via Wine (imho)

Yeah, it sounds like charm :-)

But what do I have to do if i wanted to map my joypad as a controller for, say, lmms?
Is this the way I have to go?
