Hi I'm not sure posting patches here is the right thing to do, maybe I should put them elsewhere? At least I'm hoping this could be fixed in this years release! The first allows 2 byte midi messages, for instance allowing program change to be send from chuck. The second allows --channels>2 (also --in and --out) with jack + makes chuck *not* connect its jack ports. Without this --channels3 (or greater) doesn't work for me. Both are simply disabling some checks or code that IMHO are too strict. The first have been running flawlessly for over a year. The second seems to work just fine with some quick testing. Of course any feedback/discussion from users regarding the behavior would be interesting. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk
