I need create two or more MIDI devices. Using the command "modprobe snd-virmidi", I create one midi device: "/dev/midi1". This device is connect in port 20. I can see in "aconnect -l" and put with another softs.

However, I need create anothers as: /dev/midi2, /dev/midi3, after that connect in other softs.

The snd-virmidi module has the parameters midi_devs to specify the number of ports per card, and enable to get more cards.

The OSS API usually does not allow to have multiple devices (/dev/midi*) per card, so you should create more cards; run:

modprobe snd-virmidi enable=1,1,1,1,1 midi_devs=1,1,1,1,1

Or put the line

options snd-virmidi enable=1,1,1,1,1 midi_devs=1,1,1,1,1

into some .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/.
