Cute toy, works ... somewhat. Not all soundfonts will be compatable without a few options around. 1. Samplerate conversion -- such an animal available in fluidsynth or in jack (no setting around in qjackctl)? Was not a problem using alsa (but all that latency!). 2. Channels -- Might need to set. There are soundfonts that do not play on the default channel-1/0. 3. Program -- A GM sf2 may have many programs and the MIDI controller needs to select. Others are one instrument but this either plasy on program 1/0 or on the appropriate program for say a clarinet. Might want to set a program outright (which the controller could always change). (4. Jack-midi is problematic. Must usually run through a alsa2jackmidi-bridge program and mutliple connections over three qjackctl panes. Can hang up. Had similar problems using qsynth!) _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
