Re: [LAU] M-Audio Axiom 49

(I forgot to "reply all"...)

Thank you!

I was able to install "ams" and "qmidiroute" though I'm not really
sure how to operate them. Basically, I'd like to be able to
assign/edit the different controls/knobs/etc. on the keyboard via a
user-friendly GUI-based program that helps visualize the changes in
the settings as they occur.

I'm new to MIDI on Linux (as well as recording/composing on Linux in
general). So all of this will take some getting used to... one app at
a time seems the best way to go.
