I’m trying to get it to work with lmms. Thanks in beforhand.
Please post response to this command to show if the keyboard is detected as a MIDI input device in ALSA
aconnect -i
If you are using Cadence, did you install a2jmidid for MIDI support? that package is only an optional dependency and may have been overlooked when installing.
midisport-firmware is only required for some old M-Audio MIDI devices and is probably not needed for this device. It is most likely not used and not causing any problem with hardware or other installed packages
Does Cadence allow ALSA MIDI bridge to be started or are the buttons greyed out?
If Cadence can only start JACK without the MIDI bridge, can it be started from terminal command:
a2j_control --start
Or
a2j -e
If a2j can be started the MIDI connections should be visible in Catia patchbay
If a2j fails to start, post the terminal responses to show any errors and check Cadence Logs for any additional error messages
i did install a2jmidid as an optional.
i do not have the right trustlevel to add a image in my post, but it seems that i can enable Alsa Midi bridge in cadence.
and my keystation show up in catia patchbay only problem is that i have no idea how to “wire” it correct, its even harder when i’m not allowed to show screenshot of it either as for now. If its all right with you to i can make draf in PM or if you have any other solotion.
Bit different from catia though, here is a screenshot of Calra patchbay.
You can connect from a midi instrument, KORG microkey in mycase, to some instruments, sfizz, a sample player.
Then connect the output of the instrument to speakers. In my case MOTU M4 audio interface and laptop’s builtin speakers.

You can work around forum software restrictions by posting an inactive link to an image uploaded to imgur or similar

I also suggest using this command to get information about Midi connections in text format:
jack_lsp -Ap | grep -iA1 midi
I can probably deduce the keyboard input connection from text data, but I have not used LMMS so might need to try connecting to different Midi inputs and see what works
