--- Comment #1 from Timothy Beyer <beyert@cs.ucr.edu> ---
Note that I was able to test all of these MIDI devices at once, using a few=
 USB
MIDI interfaces.  Since it was so many devices that I didn't have enough USB
ports or USB MIDI interfaces for each device individually, mostly for older
devices lacking a USB port, I used a Kenton MERGE-8 which in turn was
associated with a single USB MIDI device to verify if it handled several
devices on one UMIDI device correctly, which also works.

As far as I can tell, PureData should also work correctly in the much more
common case of lacking any MIDI devices.  It currently doesn't detect devic=
es
by their name (but rather by number, which could be a bit more intuitive),
which is a limitation that I intend to address at some point, but as long a=
s it
is plugged in before starting pd, then it should be correctly detected.

I have also experimented with midithru devices created by midicat (part of
audio/sndio), so that works in audio/pd as well.
