b770e56505 Corrected error in Windows MIDI system description. Removed information regarding configuring JACK, and replaced with a note that JACK is now considered an advanced use case, and linked to jackaudio.org for users who need the routing capabilities of jack. Removed the MIDI on Linux and MIDI on OS X sections from the master document since those primarily discussed JACK. 2022-09-02 15:54:01 +03:00

<p class="note">
On Linux systems, <dfn>QJackCtl</dfn> control software displays ALSA MIDI
ports under its "ALSA" tab (it does not currently display CoreMIDI ports).
By contrast, JACK MIDI ports show up under the <kbd class="menu">MIDI</kbd>
tab in QJackCtl. However, when Ardour is using jackd for audio in and out
the alsa MIDI ports are not accessable. When Ardour is using ALSA for audio
in and out then only alsa MIDI ports are accessable.
<dfn><abbr title="JACK Audio Connection Kit">JACK</abbr></dfn> is an
alternate audio system which Ardour can utilize for both audio and
MIDI. JACK is used to route audio between independent applications,
and is now considered an advanced use case which is not recommended
for most users. Users with a need to use JACK for audio routing
should consult the latest documentation at
the <a href="https://jackaudio.org/">JACK website</a>.
</p>
<h2>JACK MIDI Configuration</h2>
<p>
By default, JACK will <strong>not</strong> automatically detect and use
existing MIDI ports. One of several ways of <dfn>bridging</dfn> between
the native MIDI frameworks (e.g. CoreMIDI or ALSA) and JACK MIDI must be
chosen, as described in the following sections.

<p>
Before attempting to use a Mackie Control device that communicates via
a standard MIDI cable or a USB cable, you should ensure that
<a href="@@midi-on-linux">your Linux
MIDI environment is setup</a>.
<a href="@@configuring-midi">your MIDI environment is setup</a>.
If you are using a device that uses normal MIDI (via a standard MIDI or
USB cable), you need to connect Ardour's Mackie Control in and out ports
to the MIDI ports leading to and coming from the control surface.
