Hi, > I think fluidsynth has a special option to force interactive mode, but I'm > not sure. Just try fluidsynth --help | less. Well, there is a -i or --no-shell parameter, it suggests the opposite, but does not work at all: $ fluidsynth -i -m alsa_seq ~/gerrit.sf2 cca_open_socket: error connecting to destination 'localhost:14541': Connection refused cca_comm_connect_to_server: could not create server connection cca_init: could not connect to server 'localhost:14541' - disabling ladcca ** Using format s16, rw, interleaved $ That's it, fluidsynth only displays some messages and then quits. I am not even trying to send commands! Maybe it's some shell | pipe magic i don't know about? Is there anyone on this list who has some more experience with sending commands from a file to fluidsynth? -- gerrit
