With stereo samples, "-L" seems what you want but I don't intend to influence your choice. Perhaps unclear but the follow options are the same (but '-o' is buggy): a) -o synth.audio-channels=4 -o synth.audio-groups=4 -o audio.jack.multi=no b) --audio-channels=4 --audio-groups=4 c) -L 4 -G 4 d) -L 4 Proof (src/fluidsynth.c): case 'L': audio_channels = atoi(optarg); fluid_settings_setint(settings, "synth.audio-channels", audio_channels); break; [...] if ((audio_groups == 0) && (audio_channels != 0)) { audio_groups = audio_channels; } Note: some options (i.e. "audio.output-channels") are registered but never used. With "-a jack -L N", there is a single jack client with N*2 outputs. In my previous example (-L 4): output ports l_00 and r_00 for the samples used with midi chan 1 output ports l_01 and r_01 for the samples used with midi chan 2 output ports l_02 and r_02 for the samples used with midi chan 3 output ports l_03 and r_03 for the samples used with midi chan 4 _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
