Konfyt 1.1.2 has been released! A lot of the code was refactored for this release in order to support per-layer MIDI indicators as well as general design improvements. The addition of global and per-layer sustain and pitchbend indicators allows the user to troubleshoot stuck MIDI problems at a glanc...

Short term answer: no. Long term answer: maybe. It depends on time and whether I start itching to incorporate it. Is there any reason you prefer sfizz? For me, LinuxSampler has always served my needs. Initially Carla was used for that, but when it switched to SFZero I found it lacking, so I found an...

Konfyt 1.1.1 has been released! Konfyt is a digital keyboard workstation for Linux which allows you to set up patches, each with multiple layers, and instantly switch between these patches for live keyboard playing. Patches may consist of multiple layers of soundfonts (.sf2), SFZ instruments, audio ...

Maybe one of these products can do what you want? http://www.midisolutions.com/products.htm You could then use any generic pad controller with the MIDI processor unit in-between the pad controller and your other hardware. A DIY route is using a Teensy (https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/) for which there a...

An easy way to send MIDI is to use virtual keyboards like VMPK, jack-keyboard or the new https://github.com/brummer10/Mamba.

If you're willing to do Python scripting, Mididings is an option.

According to the man page, a2j_control dhw should disable exporting of hardware. However, the daemon will still be running. To stop it from running, try a2j_control stop and/or a2j_control exit in various combinations and see if the daemon stays down after restart? I haven't used a2j_control myself.

Pipewire is a new audio system under development. I didn't know anyone was using it yet.
Perhaps you can try to stop it. What Linux distro are you using?

I guess a better way to see if anything is connected to your ALSA MIDI device is to just use aconnect --list A connection looks like client 28: 'SAMSON Graphite MF8' [type=kernel,card=3] 0 'SAMSON Graphite MF8 MIDI 1' Connecting To: 129:0[real:0] Connected From: 129:0 while no connections look like ...

Sorry to hear. If you still wanted to debug (you could try with the demo version of Bitwig), you can start by seeing if anything is using your ALSA MIDI device: Run amidi -l to list MIDI devices. Run amidi -p hw:2,0,0 -d to dump raw data from your MIDI device, changing "hw:2,0,0" to your desired dev...

Bitwig uses MIDI through ALSA and requires exclusive access to a device, meaning any other programs using ALSA MIDI, including ALSA/JACK bridges, need to be stopped.

I’m trying to install jack audio kit on a mac. I just got a mac yesterday so everything is different from windows. I tried the tar xvzf command in terminal to extract the tar file but all I get is a folder. This is where I don’t know how to open the application. Can anyone help? Thanks https://jack...

I have no idea if some USB sound cards are known to have lower latency than others, but assuming that you can achieve the required low latency with most devices, other factors that play a role is the speed of your laptop and the general low latency audio tips (low latency/realtime adjustments for ke...

Yes (but testing branch is not necessarily unstable at the moment).
