Would you care to name some of these synth-apps?

Sounds good, but I'm yet to find a synth which actually responds to midi
controls.

That's exactly why I want to get mine to do things.

Great, that's sort of what I'm looking for, but how in the world do I
use it? Most of the examples I load want LADSPA plugins that I don't
have, and all the modules have lots of letters in their names with
nothing to tell me what they actually do. And I don't know enough to
create a piano sounding waveform from a bunch of oscillators.

I can't actually work out how to use Ardour. It's way too complicated
for what I currently need. Does it even have a synth?
