Choose 1 (it's the easiest).The next step in the tutorial was supposed to be installing alsa to get the MID working.
I was giving me errors (E: Unable to locate package alsa) so I tried using sudo amidi -l to check for MIDI devices. Both my keyboard and sampler/sequencer show up in the device list. Great! Now I connect the two devices using aconnect xx:x xx:x. Now my kayboard is sending MIDI to my sampler/sequencer. Awesome!
The last step in the tutorial is to create a crontab so I can have the Pi automatically connect the two MIDI devices on reboot, after setting my user to root. Here's where I am now:
root@raspberrypi:/home/kai# crontab -e
no crontab for root - using an empty one
Select an editor. To change later, run 'select-editor'.
1. /bin/nano <---- easiest
2. /usr/bin/vim.tiny
3. /bin/ed
Choose 1-3 [1]:
Which one do I choose?
The crontab I'm supposed to make is: @reboot aconnect xx:x xx:x
Thanks!
