Post by scottmcPost by Giovanni MugnaiHi,
I'd like to use midi keyboard in Haiku (to use MilkyTracker)
Will Haiku support any midi keyboard/controller? in this instance i
will use this adaptor
http://www.musicalstore.net/images/B_BESPECO_bmusb100.jpg since my
midi keyboard has standard 5 pind din GM connector.
It does work, but I'm not sure on the specifics. I've seen and heard Pete
Goodeve using it with a keyboard, tying it into his music weaver software.
He can probably give you details on his setup.

Mine looks the same, but I guess that's no guarantee that it will *work*
the same. (:-/) If it's "Standard Compliant", though, it should just plug
in and work.
A lot of manufacturers (like Yamaha) have their own protocol rather than
the standard, and we haven't tried to cover them all. But -- though my
Italian is non-existent! -- I read that device as being "new", so I'd be
pretty sure that it is compliant.
MusicWeaver might be the easiest way to test it. Its "MidiLink" element
will let you select from the available MIDI Producers and Consumers, and
for a start you could just loop back a connection from Input to Output.
You could also connect a "MidiMon" and a "StreamView" to see arriving
MIDI events as text.
The device should appear as /dev/midi/usb/0-0
HTH
