Definately try QSythn (in the repos). You can use any MIDI application that
supports Jack, and route the midi signal to QSynth. QSynth uses soundfonts,
and there are tons of them available on the net (see hammersound.net). The
audio signal can then be routed, via jack, anywhere you need it (speakers,
Ardour).

For a nice piano soundfont, there's an excellent free one called
SteinwayIMIS2 (I think). If you can't find it, contact me off-list.

I haven't found anything better than rosegarden, and I've looked long and
hard. If you're like me, you'll find that most of the apps are horridly
confusing, and don't seem to do much.


Try something like Finale, and you'll probably soon think that Rosegarden is
light... ;-)
