The use-case for multiple synth instances as outlined by Tim sounds plausible to me.
> And the only reason one could need to create 2 synths would be to render more than 16 MIDI channels (i.g 16 MIDI channels per synth). Let me just add that the synth itself is capable to render up to 256 MIDI channels, see the setting "synth.midi-channels": http://www.fluidsynth.org/api/fluidsettings.xml#synth.midi-channels Tom _______________________________________________ fluid-dev mailing list fluid-dev@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev
