As long as there are settings to cover all the things you might want to
change (e.g., reverb), then I don't see a problem with #2 and I think it
would be cleaner.
Speaking as a complete non-programmer, but an avid user of Fluidsynth,
please may I add my support for Matt's suggestion of a settings file.
This seems to be the way that most things are configured in Linux. I
imagine that the idea is to have a file called fluidsynth.conf or
suchlike, which would contain lines like 'Gain=2', 'Chorus=Off', etc.
To my mind, that's the most desirable solution to the problem of
settings, especially these elusive reverb ones. It was I who prompted
the discussion (back in March of this year) about adjusting reverb on a
running Fluidsynth by using a server mode. Without doubt, particularly
for simpletons like me, a '.conf' file that is read when Fluidsynth
starts would be eminently preferable.
Just my tuppence worth!
Cheers,
Gerald.
