I'll try it and see how it works over time. I'm using TiMidity 2.11.3,
it's all right when I start using it, but if I leave it running
eventually the CPU usage climbs to a very high amount, sometimes close
to 90%, while idling.
Btw, I don't see the resamp option listed in 'timidity -h', perhaps I
need a newer version ? I'd like JACK support with TiMidity anyway, I
think the latest version now does, yes ?
Best,
