David: I am willing to test candidate releases of Qsynth to ensure that they work on all of the machines in my lab (which includes some slow, low memory machines), and that they run all of my demo pieces, which have not successfully played on Qsynth in the last two Ubuntu releases.
Hopefully the development version will not require taking out qjackctl (JACK), since that is an integral part of my environment. I also have a new MIDI device to test it with, which (surprisingly) has given Rosegarden a few challenges. - Aere On Mon, 2012-07-16 at 14:47 +0200, David Henningsson wrote: > On 07/11/2012 08:57 PM, David Henningsson wrote: > > Something I've been thinking of for a while, and the recent thread > > reminded me of that thought... > > > > FluidSynth is quite a versatile program/library, and we all want > > different things out of it.
