I plug my master keyboard for the first time with this system (last time must be 5 years ago , with Musix, and it worked) and it does not work now.
I've search what could be the problem and didn't find, so, here are the useful (or not) informations I gathered for you to help me:
I've got a MIDI master Keyboard (my old Studio Logic 88, that I bought in 1997 if I remember well).
Of course (or for your own information if you were born late enough not to know it) USB didn't exist when I bought this master keyboard, so, I have an MIDI to USB connector (or converter, I don't really know the terminology), it's a Roland USB MIDI Interface UM-ONE (I prefer to tell that when I use a note or the sustain pedal, the MIDI in light of it becomes red, so the keyboard works) and aconnect detects it (it's partly in French, “noyau” means “kernel”):
Code: Select all
$ aconnect -i
client 0: 'System' [type=noyau]
0 'Timer '
1 'Announce '
client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=noyau]
0 'Midi Through Port-0'
1 'Midi Through Port-1'
2 'Midi Through Port-2'
3 'Midi Through Port-3'
client 20: 'UM-ONE' [type=noyau,card=1]
0 'UM-ONE MIDI 1
As you might know from the title, I tend to use Carla to manage connections.
So, I opened Fluajho to be able to use my keybord because it was the first I founded and it shows up in Carla, moreover, when I use the play button to test a sound, it works.
So, once again, you can expect it from the title: in Carla, there are no UM-ONE or anything like that and as I understood, it should be there to be able to connect it with Fluajho or anything like that.
I also tried to do something with Aconnectgui, but all I can do is to clic on the scissor icon or on the cable icon and it looks like it doesn't do anything, it's maybe because pulseaudio-module-jack render it unusable or it because of the same problems that makes that my MIDI to USB connector doesn't shows up in Carla, I don't know. By the way, I don't think I need Aconnectgui, but that's something I noticed during my research.
By the way, the virtual keyboard in Carla is greyed, I don't know if it's normal, but I didn't see anything strange in Carla settings.
Have you any idea of what I can do to make my keyboard work?
