<h2>MIDI Handling Frameworks</h2>
|
|
<h4>CoreMIDI</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p> CoreMIDI is the standard MIDI framework to comunicate with MIDI
|
|
hardware on OSX systems. It provides drivers and libraries needed by
|
|
MIDI clients. These ports do not show up in qjackctl</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>ALSA MIDI</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p> ALSA MIDI is the standard MIDI framework to comunicate with MIDI
|
|
hardware on Linux systems. It provides drivers and libraries needed by
|
|
MIDI clients. These ports show up under the "ALSA" tab in qjackctl</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4> JACK MIDI</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p> JACK MIDI is a framework used to comunicate between JACK MIDI
|
|
software clients. It provides zero jitter and a fixed latency of 1
|
|
"period" (the same latency that exists for audio). These ports show up
|
|
under the "MIDI" tab in qjackctl.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Various ways of "bridging" between the native MIDI framework
|
|
(e.g. CoreMIDI or ALSA) and JACK MIDI, as described in the sections
|
|
below.
