hello!

i have an xl-1 and a planet phatt sound-module. i also like linux.  
since there were no patch editors for those available on linux i wrote  
my own. see http://prodatum.sf.net if you are interested (its free,  
windows and mac versions are also available).

prodatum is currently under development and i am about to add submix  
controls. since not all of the devices support multiple outputs, i  
need a way to detect those (for p1k, p2k, p2k keyboards and command  
stations). anyone knows howto do that?

every device has either 32 or 16 midi channels. now, my guess is that  
all devices that have 32 midi channels also have 3 stereo outputs  
(like there are these 2 hardware configurations). anyone knows for  
certain? note: any solution must work for sound modules, keyboards and  
command stations.

also: does every device that has 3 stereo outputs also have a digital  
out? (i would guess so because i believe that there are only 2  
hardware configs, but im not sure).


thank you and lots of jam, ")
