Re: [fluid-dev] Major degradation in sound quality & cpu usage going from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10

[Aere Greenway]

Matt:

I need JACK because I include audio files in my sequences.  I can even use it on a 450 megahertz machine.  I've learned a lot about using it in the past few years.  I use Rosegarden, and it's easiest to record audio tracks using Rosegarden.  

I have learned how to use FluidSynth both ways, so I certainly can use it without JACK, if I choose to do so.  

Still, I appreciate your advice.  

Sincerely,
Aere

I can't have FluidSynth break in the next few weeks. Therefore, I'm very glad you warned me and I'll hold off upgrading to 11.10 until I finish this music.

For years, I've just been using FluidSynth with ALSA and/or PulseAudio (it doesn't make much difference to me). So you might try those and see if they work for you.
