LPK25 and Yoshimi

Post by WillyGogs »

Hi all, anyone had any luck running the LPK25 Akai keyboard with Yoshimi, I can get the lpk to show up in qjack but in the ALSA tab and I can only connect it to Midi through or back to itself, my Yoshmi shows up in the Midi writable clients tab, is there something im missing to get these 2 to work together?

You need to run "a2jmidid -e" which is a utility program which causes alsa midi devices (like your LPK25) to appear in Jack midi (under device "a2j"). I recommend you add this command to your QJackCtl config in Setup->Options->Execute script after startup to always start a2jmidid.

Thanks man, I have it in the script box but it never seems to run so I have to open a terminal and run it manually..
Anyone else had this problem?
