Re: [fluid-dev] newbie tempo question

[Julien Claassen]

Hi Steve!
  I've never looked at the MIODI-Player of fluidsynth and I've never used it 
intensely. But: I think, that fluidsynth's MIDIfile-player was mostly for 
smaller jobs or for testing. Fluidsynth is best suited to playing live. For 
playback, with soundfonts or GUS-patches, better use TiMidity. Fedora should 
have it packaged.
  You can easily configure timidity to use a soundfont or more than one. 
Timidity also uses much less CPU-power with a couple of channels/sounds 
playing simultaneously. Also timidity has a few interface (commandline, 
curses, slang, and GUIs of course gtk and lesstif or motif).
  Kindest regards
         Julien
