Hi there,
can raveloxmidi be used with a multi-port converter? Respectively with multiple multiport converters?

I have three useless 8x8 USB MIDI converters and I would like to try to use them.

amidi list (simplified)
$ amidi -l
Dir Device    Name
IO  hw:1,0,0  MIDI_1
IO  hw:1,0,1  MIDI_2
IO  hw:1,0,2  MIDI_3
IO  hw:1,0,3  MIDI_4
IO  hw:1,0,4  MIDI_5
IO  hw:1,0,5  MIDI_6
IO  hw:1,0,6  MIDI_7
IO  hw:1,0,7  MIDI_8
IO  hw:2,0,0  MIDI_1
    <...>       <...>
IO  hw:2,0,7  MIDI_8
IO  hw:3,0,0  MIDI_1
    <...>       <...>
IO  hw:3,0,7  MIDI_8

I know there is a possibility of multiple values of alsa.output_device and alsa.input_device, but it only does All -> One or One -> All.
I`m right?

I need 1 <--> 1, for each I/O MIDI port create its own RTP session.
So I tried to start four raveloxmidi sessions, each for one IO port and it seems to work. But is this the right procedure? And is it possible to start these 24 sessions like this?

I went through the documentation but I didn't find any mention of this.

Thanks
David

Apologies for the delay in responding. I'm in the middle of moving house.

At the moment, the software doesn't handle that kind of mapping.

If I read what you're asking correctly, you'd like raveloxmidi to make outbound RTP MIDI connections to a remote service for each configured alsa.input_device but have a dedicated connection for each device?

The software can make a connection to a remote service already but it's still a all-to-one deal.

I'll give it some thought and see what I can put together as a prototype for you.

Thanks

Dave

Hi Dave,
nothing happens.

I don't know if I understood your answer correctly, but connecting to a remote service probably won't be what I need.
Instead, I need create and publish RTP MIDI ports for all real MIDI IO ports for each device (port 1 - 8) by raweloxmidi. For example, something like mioXL from iConnectivity (it has 22 rtp ports)

Maybe I didn't create the original question the best. I am little groping in RTP MIDI terminology.

Best regards,
David
