i am using rg with timidity. initially i tried with fluidsynth, but it kept crashing while recording. in the manual i found: "when Rosegarden is running a plugin, if the plugin hangs or crashes, so does Rosegarden" https://www.rosegardenmusic.com/doc/en/studio-plugins.html
so possibly that explains the crashes. on linuxmusicians a nice individual told me about yoshimi: https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?p=145388#p145388 https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?p=145391#p145391 then i also saw this: "I suggest not loading synths directly to RG but to use ALSA MIDI in, say, QJackCtl to link a standalone synths. I use Rosegarden with LinuxSampler this way." https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?p=81261&sid=849c6e4366bd65972a6e40b341b3955d#p81261 and in the rg manual i read this: "Synth plugins can be used in place of hardware or standalone soft-synth MIDI devices ... synth plugin gives you somewhat better control ... may also offer better timing resolution ... " https://www.rosegardenmusic.com/doc/en/studio-plugins.html so a synth plugin is an alternative to both something like timidity and yoshimi|linuxsampler? if so, from the manual, it seems to me that synth plugins are preferable to external midi devices, midi software synthesizers (timidity, fluidsynth) soft synths (yoshimi, linuxsampler) what is the recommended|prefered way to get sound in rg? -- In friendship, prad _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user
