I have just received a new MIDI instrument (Starr Labs Z7S) which is not recognized by the kernel, and I'd like to add support for it. I'm hoping that it uses a standard MIDI interface and it's just a matter of adding the correct entry in the table of devices.

I have tried to add an entry to sound/usb/usbquirks.h (sound/usb/quirks-table.h in later kernels), but so far I haven't succeeded. Is there any documentation for how to do this, and which options to use? Google hasn't really turned up anything...

The USB descriptors should give us a hint. Can you send your "lsusb -v" output, please?
