I have asked this before, but got no answers. :-(
Situation as follows:
Frescobaldi 4.0.1:
At „MIDI settings - Player output" can choose between „SimpleSynth“,
„Fluidsynth“ and „Fluidsynth - Qsynth“.
None of those give any sound.
Frescobaldi 3.3.0:
All options work.
I did not change anything else in my system.
MacBook Pro M1 MacOS 15.4.1
I’d guess your different installations of MIDI synths interfere or you
might lack a suitable soundfont, but if it worked in 3.3 …
A friend didn’t get Fluidsynth/Qsynth from Homebrew working, but the
version from MacPorts worked. (I never used a different one.)
I sometimes have the problem that Qsynth/fluidsynth tries to use a sound
device that isn’t attached any more, like my bluetooth speaker, then I
must reset it and also re-set Frescobaldi’s MIDI settings. But that’s
probably also not your problem.
Sorry, no clue.
