Sorry Carlos. I don't know what anybody knows. There are many people who
have never turned on qjc and complain about getting sound at all, or don't
know about kaconnect and don't actually have MIDI hooked up. I was one of
them not too long ago.

It was not intended to be a reflection on you. I just had limited knowledge.
Sorry.

I'm not following. How is every synth playing if MIDI from the keyboard
won't play them? Rosegarden playing a prerecorded MIDI file I suppose?

On my system, if I run Zyn, qjc and kaconnect, I can hook up MIDI to Zyn's
input, and hook up audio from Zyn's output, and hear MIDI. It seems you can
too IF you use RG, but you SHOULD be able to just using kaconnect and qjc,
assuming you make the right connections for your hardware and software.

I doubt this is the issue, but RG does have the ability to filter MIDI
events. Could it be filtering Note On/Off so there's nothing to record?

Sorry for not having better answers.
