I did not say that it is impossible to bundle a working PortMIDI with Frescobaldi: I just haven't been able yet because it does not work in the most obvious way. >> What about bundling, say, FluidSynth and the soundfont from MuseScore so >> that MIDI playback would work "out of the box" as it does in the Windows >> version of Frescobaldi?

Being able to use QuickTime as MIDI synthesizer would be good: I still would prefer FluidSynth, but QuickTime support would avoid depending on external software and would give working MIDI playback out of the box. But I believe that this also would require PortMIDI. Before implementing new Mac-specific features in Frescobaldi, I would like to solve the current problems of the bundle (PortMIDI and convert-ly) and be able to publish an official Frescobaldi application bundle with the next release. Best wishes. Davide _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
