Hi Guys,
experimenting with my linux setup here.
Atm, I am trying to figure out how to add more than one midi-out-port to renoise, so I can actually remote more than one vsti.
If I remember correctly, I already got this working once, but I just cannot remember how I did this.
Anyone with a hint?
Regards, Chris
P.S.: spend an hour looking for the line-in-routing device in beta 3.0. Its a bug, haha , its fixed, but backstage is down atm.
A well, I figured it out myself.
One has to load the appropriate kernel module, sbd-virmidi, to add more virtual midi ports.
To achieve that, do sudo modprobe snd-virmidi .
If one needs more than four, add enable=1,1 with a ‘1’ for every four ports.
Make these alsa-driven ports visible to jack by starting a2jmidid , all as user.
I then wired everything, that is renoise, the vstis from fsthost and the midi-ports, using qjackctl or patchage .
That’s all folks
FIY, I’m on Archlinux and installed everything (fat) above via yaourt .
Cheers, Chris

Last I remember, a simpler method is to use snd_seq_dummy:
sudo modprobe snd-seq-dummy ports=4
This should work straight in qjackctl/patchage (a2jmidid not needed).
options snd_seq_dummy ports=4
