I want to put together a stack for hobbyist midi music composition. I understand there are a few more components to it than one might expect, but I think VMPK and Qtracer are going to be part of it?

Any tutorial links or suggestions appreciated!

    Ooof it can get pretty techy. Once you get it set up you likely won’t have to mess with it again though.

    I’ve done that set up many times, so if you want help I’m happy to answer questions.

    I use a pipewire w/ qjackctl to connect Ardour to my speakers and midi keyboard. I do this on fedora Linux.
