Hi Jens:

I assume you want to play TiMidity as a softsynth ? Here's how I set it up for use with a MIDI sequencer:

   timidity -iA -B2,8 -Os -A100 -EFreverb=0 -EFchorus=0

where:

   -iA   sets up TiMidity as a sound server
   -B2,8   buffer settings
   -Os   output format
   -A100   amplitude percentage
   -EFreverb   sets reverb to 0
   -EFchorus   sets chorus to 0

The effects settings reduce CPU consumption. Btw, TiMidity will start to hog the CPU after a while.

It appears as a client in the ALSA patch bay, so I just connect any available input device to it and I'm wailin'...

Of course, if that isn't what you want to do you can just ignore this message... :)

Best regards,

dp
