Seems to be. I just verified it a couple of times on Mojave.  No sound output without doing it first.  No MIDI events show in the flashing green light on Qsynth unless doing it first. J. On 12/28/19 13:29, Davide Liessi wrote: > Il giorno sab 28 dic 2019 alle ore 21:54 John Helly > ha s

Frescobaldi 3.1 Successes (happy to report)

Aloha. 1. Tried unsuccessfully to build from scratch on 10.14.6 (Mojave) and ran into a series of python dependency problems that I haven't fully solved. 2. Downloaded the 3.1 dmg and successfullly run it on 10.14.6 (Mojave) and 10.15.2 (Catalina).  Nice job. 3. Tested on 10.14.6

Re: Qsynth not producing sound when used from within frescobaldi
