An example: $ ghostess -2 -chan 4 fluidsynth-dssi.so This will open two instances of fluidsynth-dssi on channels four and five (ghostess numbers channels from 0 to 15). Slightly OT: In a previous post you stated that MIDI routers do not make for on-the-fly changes in live work. I don't see why they don't. Imagine a MIDI router with one input and two outputs (e.g. qmidiroute): The keyboard controllers output is connected to the one input of qmidiroute. Qmidiroute may filter all messages arriving on certain channels, sending them to the first output. Unmatched events go to output 2 Then no interaction with the router is required, switching between the channels on the keyboard controller is all needed. greetings, d _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
