Please support jack-midi. Can't see how else I could even use this library.

Don't know if it solves your issue, but I'm using https://github.com/arirusso/midi-eye/blob/master/examples/monitor.rb and I am getting all my events wonderfully through USB MIDI

You tried with JACK
I'm telling you that you can use MIDI through USB - both for input and output

But I route all my midi through the computer. This way I'd 1) have to stop a2jmid and not have any midi available in jack any more and 2) I wouldn't be able to route any software to a unimidi enabled software.

So usability wise this limits everything extremely.

In most cases I do not want to route anything to usb in the first place, so I'm still lost as to why this would be useful.

It would only work if I have 1 software connected to 1 hardware port, and that's it.
Typically I have dozens of hardware and software ports routed together.

I was just informing you that using MIDI through USB was an option, which your initial post hinted at you not knowing, and could've solved your issue
