Bug ID: 47502 Summary: Wine names MIDI devices not the same as Windows Product: Wine Version: 4.12.1 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winealsa.drv Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: demindf@gmail.com Distribution: ---
I'm trying to run Yamaha's DSP controller for AG06 mixer, but it doesn't detect MIDI device. The reason it can't find it is because it looks for a device named "AG06/AG03", however Wine transforms the name to "AG06/AG03 - AG06/AG03 MIDI 1".
To make application work I made a quickfix (not for merging, just for my self) https://github.com/demin-dmitriy/wine/commit/5497db48db29363af332f1f68b2c755... , and indeed application works smoothly after that.
Yamaha's DSP controller is not the only program that suffers from that. Here's a reddit post by somebody with exactly the same issue and same solution but with Rekordbox: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/c0np91/rename_midi_devices/
