Thank you very much. Using the 'manage synth plugins' window I load the
FluidSynth DSSI plugin. Then using the editor I locate the soundfont and
choose the instrument. Then I can play and record with it with no problems.
However issues start when I want to use a different instrument in a
different track. I hope the intended functionality is that I can click. say
on Track 1, and my keyboard will play the instrument associated with Track
1, and when I click on Track 2, pressing the keys will play the instrument
associated with Track 2. So I want to have two different instruments from
the same soundfont associated with different tracks. The only way I was
able to do it was to load in the 'Manage Synth Plugins' menu the
Fluid-Synth DSSI plugin TWICE, for rows "1" and "2", and then load the
soundfont TWICE. I guess that's not the way to do this, since it's so
inefficient -- so how does one do this properly?
But the bigger problem is, once I have one copy of the plugin doing its
magic for Track 1, and another working its tricks for Track 2, so that the
instruments I hear really change when I click the different tracks, then
all the sounds are crackled. When I save the *.rg file, exit the program,
relaunch and load it again, the sound is fine. How can I avoid doing this
all the time?
Now, I'm trying to avoid using Jack to make connections at all. Not using
any standalone synth, it seems that to hear anything, I need to connect, in
the 'MIDI Playback' menu 'Rosegarden playback device' to MIDI Through. Is
that right?
Thank you very much again,
Leszek.
