a) the digi32 and digi96 are completely different products from the
multiface, digiface, hdsp, digi9652 and digi9632 models. they use
different hardware, a different design, different everything.
b) the multiface MIDI I/O is supported, using the same code as the
digiface MIDI I/O which i was using last night.

it should just work. make sure you have the snd-seq module loaded, then
fire up qjackctl and you should see the port(s) for the Multiface. off
the top of my head i don't recall if it has 1 or two, the digiface has
two and they are both there. you can also use aconnect -l to see the
available ports from the standpoint of the ALSA sequencer.
