Hi,
I'd like to subscribe to jack midi ports by using their aliases, as port
names might change.
E.g., jack-lsp -lA reports:
[...]
system:midi_capture_3
alsa_pcm:Arturia-KeyStep-32/midi_playback_1
Arturia-KeyStep-32:midi/playback_1
port playback latency = [ 0 0 ] frames
port capture latency = [ 0 0 ] frames
I can establish the connection if I use 'system:midi_capture_3' in
mididings, but if I use 'alsa_pcm:Arturia-KeyStep-32/midi_playback_1' or
'Arturia-KeyStep-32:midi/playback_1', it fails:
warning: regular expression 'alsa_pcm:Arturia-KeyStep-32/midi_playback_1' didn't match any JACK MIDI ports
Even wildcards, like '.*Arturia.*', won't establish the connection.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Ralf
