[Fwd: MIDI input with dosemu : Yes!]

Another FWD on the same subject.
Perhaps something to add to sound-usage.txt

Greetings:

Okay, I figured out how to do this. Here's how I did it :

1. Downloaded CVS dosemu.
2. Applied Stas's patch and compiled
3. Linked ALSA virmidi (/dev/snd/C1D0 on my system) to
~/.dosemu/run/dosemu-midi
4. Linked my SBLive MIDI port (/dev/midi00) to
~/.dosemu/run/dosemu-midi_in
5. Connect virmidi port to synth (EMU10k1, TiMidity, whatever)
via kaconnect or ALSA MIDI patch bay
6. Start dosemu
7. Install vapimpu.com without IRQ flag
8. Start Seq+, set MIDI Thru to On
9. Enjoy !

Very cool. Btw, dosemu now loads version 1.51 of the vapimpu driver.
Also, I can run dosemu full-screen in X. The font aliasing gets pretty severe at high-res, but it's still cool.

So there you have it. Stas, thanks a lot: I'll continue tests and will
let you know how I fare. Steve, Allan: You can now have a fully operational Seq+, so have at it. :)

Best regards,

Dave Phillips
