your soundcard apparently can't do 48kHz 16-bit stereo. hmm ... all ac97(4) and azalia(4) cards can do that ... you're using FreeBSD 4.11 ... hmm I'm going to take a wild guess and suggest you try using '-r 44100' on the fluidsynth command line. > >>> the way the manual says to. > >> What make you think that I did not saw the manual? > > > > You should probably stop posting about now, you're starting to make > > yourself look realy bad. > > Your are talking about unrelated topics, Paul.

By the way, absence of constructive > reply starting to make you look really bad. you've now complained about at least two "performance" issues, yet, with neither complaint, did you send a dmesg, despite having been pointed to instructions for reporting problems that tell you to include a dmesg. btw, I tried finding 'beethoven_-_5th_simphony.mid' to see if I could reproduce your problem or at least have some basic idea of what's going on. but I'll leave it at a "performance" issue. you're probably running a 486 with an ISA soundcard anyway. oh, wait. I found a dmesg: PR 6220. PII @ 349 MHz w/ s...@isapnp ok, now I can believe you may have a "performance" issue. PS do you really think that's the kind of system most people would use as a "desktop" in 2009? after all, this subthread started with you saying OpenBSD might not be suitable as a desktop system, because of your issue with timidity "performance". -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
