I find it very valuable to find out who users are and what they are

doing with the app. I ignore certain users. After all, who likes to

waste time on things that do not get used. So I understand.

Speaking of jack-midi. It is the oly thing that keeps my setup running.

When using alsa midi the slows down and speeds up very bad. I find the

timing in jack midi to be far superior for professional work. When I run

jack midi it would be synced with jack transport running alongside of

900+ midi and audio connections. things get nasty with alsa midi :)
