I own a M-Audio Axiom 61 MIDI controller and I'm trying to configure with Reaper 5, which now has quite a stable pure Linux version. I am not using WINE at all.
I followed everything in this incredibly helpful walkthrough, and was able to get all the steps to work, so I know that the setup works.
I run the following jackd
server from the command line, connect and turn my MIDI controller on, start up Reaper and configure it with JACK to be able to see my MIDI controller in the MIDI Devices
list, where I enable it as an input.
pasuspender -- jackd -d alsa --device hw:0 --rate 44100 --period 128
I then add a track, select all MIDI channels as the input, turn on record monitoring and arm it.
Reaper doesn't pick up any signal when I play a key from my MIDI controller, but when I fire up a Virtual MIDI it does.
aseqdump -l
? Do you get any events when you runaseqdump
on that port?
