[fluid-dev] FluidSynth with Win32/.NET front end

[Chris McLennan]

Hello FluidSynth group,

 

I have been testing FluidSynth and looking at the source for the last week or so under Win32.  I was really interested to see the --server option on the man page... but after looking at the source I see that this hasn't been implemented for Windows.  Has anyone already wrapped FluidSynth for use w/ Win32 or .NET apps?   Looking at the source, it's probably not a trivial amount of work to do this.  So I'm hoping if someone has done this they would be willing to share what they know?

 

FYI: I got some great sounding results with FluidSynth at a recording session over the weekend using a Dell PC w/ some generic sound card!  However, I had some latency that I could not get rid of and had to use a different synth module for tracking.   I'm going to try to install it on another computer and compare the latencies.  Any advice on this topic would also be great!

 

Regards,
