Hi i'd like to get my Edirol PCR-80 USB midi controller working with linux but cant find much documentation on getting midi controllers working via USB. I did find one relating to an evolution controller but it seemed a little outdated.

Can anyone save me some search time by providing some quick tips on this? I have USB midi compiled into the kernel but when i boot i get the following error:

Code:


Jun  1 22:17:27 tux usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using address 2
Jun  1 22:17:27 tux midi: probe of 3-1:1.0 failed with error -5


Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

-John

one tip is not to compile into the kernel but as modules, makes it easy for trail and error, maybe sure you have usb-midi under;

device drivers / sound / ALSA then ALSA USB devices &
device drivers / USB Support

this produce 2 modules usb_midi and snd_usb_audio

load those up and see what you get in your logs.
