OK, maybe someone in this forum can help you, even without sharing the precious source code of FT2!

Hello! I was thinking about the possibility to implement a generic midi mpu-401 driver to make Ft2 work with external devices, in a way like Impulse tracker did with the command "it /s19 /a330" Thank you!

Hi! Thank you for your active development of the original FT2 as well as the Clone! I already contacted you privately in the past, at the limit of spam! 😉 Do you think you'll be able in the future to make some midi out port options for different devices? Thank you!!!

I tried also Impulse Tracker in the "midi" mode, using the command "it /s19", and it automatically recognizes my mpu 330 port, and it sends midi messages. So, at this point, it's a Fastracker 2 issue, in the sense that it does not properly recognize my ess1788, probably because tge 1788 is …

Are you 100% sure your version of esscfg fits to your soundcard? https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=204457#p204457 I have tried various things, with the Yamaha DB attached. ... 3) Use esscfg (older version 1.9), and set MPU401 to Enabled ...
