Thank you. I did already looked at it as part of aconnect's
documentation, and am impressed by the Pd-object patchability.

As you say, it is not (yet) exactly what I am looking for, but sure is
interesting as well. Thanks for pointing me towards it.

In case someone started following this thread by now only, let me sum up:

I am still looking for a way how to have Pd connect to alsa midi devices
by their name, and without possible confusion with other Pd instances on
the same machine. This is on Linux.

best, P
