Midi-controll of Zynaddsubfx is unfortunately restricted to twelve parameters with fixed controller-numbers. http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net/doc_3.html To lift restrictions of fixed controller-numbers, qmidiroute can be used to change them. Find qmidiroute here: http://alsamodular.sourceforge.net...

I guess scores are really powerful for writing music, but I do not (yet) read/write them fluently, so in my case I wouldn't call it easier using them. I dislike entering notes by mouse in seq24. Usually I record from MIDI Keyboard which is highly intuitive and gives quick results. The same with MIDI...

This works fine until now, in case of unmet dependencies in the future I might just upgrade to unstable.

Interesting to hear that Debian sid/unstable runs rather stable. Using lenny/testing I had to fetch some packages from sid (e.g. ardour) which made me think about upgrading, but the term 'unstable' kept me from doing so. Since everything runs well now, especially the realtime-stuff, I will most like...
