There was one fix applied to CVS affecting one of the memory alignment macros for the AMD64 platform, reminds me that I need to make another release of FluidSynth at some point soon. I had planned on implementing some other things before then (improved tunable voice stealing), but that just hasn't happened yet. So you may want to give CVS a try. Don't use SSE either, its probably broken in FluidSynth and I don't think has much of a performance increase currently. > Then when I run it, I get this message.

Not a major issue, but can lead to audio dropouts and other artifacts if a note is played for which the sample data has to be loaded from disk. Running as root would allow FluidSynth to lock its memory. > Keith > Regards, Josh Green
