haha, thanks Glenn - but I sorted it this morning....as I wrote above....but for some reason after installing it and testing, my internet connection (ethernet) would only run very VERY slowly. had to go to work and got back and had the same issue. But shut down and restarted and internet is now fine. Weird!!

Just tried another reboot and all is well, playing Pianoteq nicely! Yep on Manjaro - BIG thanks to Glenn, it was his comment about the AUR that caused me to re-consider and have one LAST try with Linux. Much better to go for a system that works than one that looks pretty I guess! Lesson learned |

Veddy cool, so Robbert was correct that Bluez already had the option set for MIDI, and I guess that library you installed has to do with Bluetooth gateways that are needed to expose the MIDI as a port.

Yep! Seems that was it. Would NEVER have done this in anything but Manjaro with the AUR!

So when you go into REAPER's Options, Settings, MIDI devices can you select your Bluetooth keyboard after running the "modprobe snd_virmidi" command that 4duhwinnn posted? |

As I wrote I even tried enabling all of the virtual ports and channels and still nothing! haha, having an issue with the windows vsts at the moment though! Yabridge (apparently) syncs them, and Reaper (apparently) scans them ok, but they do not appear for use to insert into a track?? Anyway.....*sigh |

terminal window that put in force what the command does. Like issue these two commands back to back in the same terminal. modprobe snd_virmidi ~/opt/REAPER/reaper If REAPER still doesn't see the BT device, you might need to use qjackctl and set REAPER to use JACK for its audio system. |

Nah, very little needs to even be touched, there are youtubes that will clear the air, it's mainly basic i/o, choose your interface and sample rates etc
Click or hover after a couple of the videos, and you'll be at home! It's handy to switch between an EWI as your input device, or a keyboard or guitar. I'm a bag of hammers with a midi cable, so I know you can master it! Cheers |
