Alsa-project.org states that "all USB [MIDI devices] that are standards 
compliant will work." (and further, that if they don't, to let them know!)

Does this mean that, under ALSA, all compliant USB MIDI devices should work 
with OLPC and OLPCsound?

And should this include all (true) class-compliant USB devices under Windows 
and Mac?

(Still looking for some insight/guidance as to what MIDI devices should work 
with OLPC.)

Art,

On my OLPC - YES all compliant devices will work.

This means (and I recommend)  M-Audio Trigger Finger (lost of  
sliders, pads, and knobs that you are looking for)
This also mean the M-Audio Oxygen 02  and any of the newer Oxygen8  
Keyboards (Both of which I use with the OLPC)
This means that the earliest version of the Oxygen8 (which I have -  
does NOT work with the OLPC.)

Good luck.

PS Art .....

The RollUP USB Keyboard that David Recommended (and I have one) does  
NOT work with the OLPC
or any other commercial MIDI device - it doesn't really do standard  
MIDI, but rather only works with it's on
Windows included little software.... Good for Circuit Bending and  
some MaxMSP or PD hacking.
