I have a synth engine for do it, but i need almost four sounds, one for each hand and two for accompaniment, and also do the drums in soundtracker way... and that needs a lot of CPU resources. And yes .... i start "gmorgan" ... using soundfount players ... really no CPU cost if you have a soundcard ... and we have a good soundfont synths .. timidity and fluidsynth. I pretend generate the accompaniment paterns reading Midi files, with a especific format in a easy way because is hard to do a drum & score editor. I dont know how to do it :-) Thanks. Josep
