Hi Lorenzo,

Jack runs fine, latencies in Jack are no problem. There are only latency
problems when

- using plugins with big latencies like graphical EQ
- using synths as external programs instead of using as a dssi-plugin

I guess there are either loops or general midi-routing problems when
recording the same instrument that's played with already existing
segments.

Regards
Holger

In my huumble opinion the DSSI version might *not* be recommended for 
long-term archiving and portability of .rg files as it relies on 
availability of the plug-in and soundfont(s) path... And of course 
complexity of the piece ;)

It might not be a Rosegarden issue... I would check if your jack is 
set-up to use realtime and a good low latency? I've experienced this 
being rather important for fluidsynth 'smoothness', although in my 
experience less relevant with the fluidsynt, Although I must say I have 
very little experience with usb (musical) keyboard.
