[PD] pd & midi

[juto aviten]

franck,
I think you right to araise thise question, because it's not so clear 
for many of us, loof for example the presentation of MuSE :

MusE is a *MIDI/Audio sequencer[...]*
[...]
Jack

    * Use the Jack Audio Connection Kit for midi/audio routing.

they don't talk about qjackctl, it's the same for many software using 
midi as control or format.
It's interesting to discuss, it's true that we used qjackctl with alsa 
sequencer and it's true that the audio & midi in this apps are completly 
separate!
always interesting to look at the Dave Phillips page : 
http://linuxsound.atnet.at/ because there is plenty of tools to do it!!
thanks to light my view on this point :-)

I will test you stuff!
