Oh man I had no idea MIDIO128 could playback MIDI, that's awesome! Glancing at the code, it looks like it does indeed support SysEx at some level, though I'll have to keep digging to know more. That said, yeah this basically does everything I need! Thanks a ton for helping me see the light, kpete! EDIT: It does look like I may need to extend it a bit to get remote transport commands working (say from a NanoKontrol). I'm also not sure if I can play back a MIDI file while also playing live through MIDIO128? Some songs have both backing tracks as well as live playing. Seems like adding that functionality, if it doesn't exist, should be doable. The hardware cost of building a simple MIDIO128 setup is far less than MBSEQ, so I'm gonna grab up the hardware and start playing around with it.

Hi my friends. I'm fresh meat on this electronic circuitry planning thing, so noob doubts are something that I have A LOT. (not an issue for me to solder or etch a pcb if I have the final project file though, just fixed two old midi mergers this month, lol) I've been reading some things here and at the uccaps.de fabulous pages, and would like to do someting like a 5 In 1/2 out Midi Merger. So, the question is: May I do it without having to go for the router project? How? It's not that I think I couldn't build the Router, but more a question of going for the cheaper option. I admit I don't have a clue of where to start or which is the cheaper way of doing this. I suppose that the midi router would be the answer, but the cost is something that counts a lot here. By the way, C programming is not my land, I'm an SQL guy. Obviously I thing I can tweak some things in C if I'm guided on the right direction. Please, appologise the noob here for this one, but believe me, I am reading on a daily basis on this, and can't see an alternative for this without being the midi router. Best regards.
