Ok, I found this:
./alsa/alsa-driver-0.9.6/alsa-kernel/drivers/virmidi.c

<snip virmidi.c >
/*
 * VIRTUAL RAW MIDI DEVICE CARDS
 *
 * This dummy card contains up to 4 virtual rawmidi devices.
 * They are not real rawmidi devices but just associated with sequencer
 * clients, so that any input/output sources can be connected as a raw
 * MIDI device arbitrary.
 * Also, multiple access is allowed to a single rawmidi device.
 *
 * Typical usage is like following:
 * - Load snd-virmidi module.
 * # modprobe snd-virmidi index=2
 * Then, sequencer clients 72:0 to 75:0 will be created, which are
 * mapped from /dev/snd/midiC1D0 to /dev/snd/midiC1D3, respectively.
 *
 * - Connect input/output via aconnect.
 * % aconnect 64:0 72:0 # keyboard input redirection 64:0 -> 72:0
 * % aconnect 72:0 65:0 # output device redirection 72:0 -> 65:0
 *
 * - Run application using a midi device (eg. /dev/snd/midiC1D0)
 */
</snip>

This looks what I want.
How do I get it to compile as a module ?

thanks,
