I'm the author of the midi driver (or rather /dev/midi, I believe the sound blaster package has special midi support called /dev/sequencer, but I can't comment on that). The version being shipped with 2.0 (and 1.X for that matter) is old. If you want a newer version, you should ftp://ftp.xor.com/pub/midi/tclmidi-2.1.tar.gz. I haven't tested the driver with 2.0 yet, but will do it soon. I expect the changes to be very minor. This version of tclmidi comes with a driver that uses the midi board in MPU401 UART mode but also supports external SMPTE timing if you have a Music Quest card with the appropriate hardware. There are also drivers supplied for LINUX and SVR4 (though SVR4 is currently broken). The tclmidi code itself is in C++ and was modified to build under Windows too, but hasn't been compiled that way in a while. Tclmidi is TCL based. The only software that I know of that uses the driver is my tclmidi package. There was some guy working on a appegiator using the driver, but I haven't heard from him in a while. Someone else has been working on a very basic sequencer using tclmidi. Send a "subscribe tclmidi" message to majordomo@advtech.uswest.com if you want to be notified of any tclmidi updates and be a part of a very low traffic mailing list. mike --- End of forwarded message from "Mike Durian" <durian@boogie.com>
