Hi Fredrik,
2006/8/19, Fredrik Ekdahl <fekdahl@xxxxxxxxx>:
Great!
How can i test this?
the soft synth loads by default /boot/beos/etc/synth/big_synth.sy
(which I locally linked to a General Midi sf2 bank (I used
sYnerGi-8Mb.sf2).
I can't start MidiSynth in Haiku, because it seems to be linked against
libnet.so, which isn't there in Haiku. When I create a link called
libnet.so to libnetwork.so it starts, but "Disable Synthesizer" is
greyed out, so I guess it doesn't find the softsynth. The "Midi Out"
meny shows nothing. I have a SoundBlaster Live! card using the emuxki
driver. Is there midi support in that driver?
I also tested with MidiSynth 1.6 on Haiku at the time the network libs
hadn't yet changed. Maybe there is a bug when no SoundFont is found.
About emuxki I didn't test the midi support of this driver. It could
be considered experimental.

Where can I find this? And how should I tell the fluidsynth library
which soundfont to use?
You have to download a SoundFont bank or find one on a Creative Driver CD.
Are there any free soundbanks which could be included in Haiku by
default?
If you come with a good one, let me know. The one I downloaded were
not redistributable AFAIK.
You can also submit bugs in our Bugzilla if needed.
Bye,
Jérôme
