searching the timidity man page for ...

  "decay" gets me:
        -m msec, --decay-time=msec
               Modify envelope volume decay time. msec is the minimum number
               of milliseconds to sustain a sustained note.

               -m0 Disable sustain ramping, causes constant volume sustains
                      (default).

               -m1 Effectively behaves as if all sustains are ignored, vol‐
                      ume ramping is the same as normal stage 3.

               -m3000 A note at full volume will decay for 3 seconds once it
                      begins to be sustained (assuming the regular stage 3 rate
                      would not cause it to decay even longer). Softer notes
                      will of course die sooner.

"release":
        -R msec
               Enables Pseudo Reverb Mode. It sets every instrument's release
               to msec ms. If msec is 0, msec is set to 800 (default).

and;
        -f, --[no-]fast-decay
               Toggles fast envelopes. This option makes TiMidity++ faster but
               the release time of the notes are shortened.

"effects":
              F args For effects. See below. In args option, you can specify
                      following effect options:

                      delay=(d|l|r|b)[,msec], --delay=(d|l|r|b)[,msec]
                             Sets delay type.

                             d, 0 Disabled delay effect.

                             l, 1 Left delay.

                             r, 2 Right delay.

                             b, 3 Swap left & right.

                             Optional msec is the delay time.

                      chorus=(d|n|s)[,level], --chorus=(d|n|s)[,level]

                             d, 0 Disable this effect.

                             n, 1 Enable MIDI chorus effect control.

                             s, 2 Surround sound, chorus detuned to a lesser
                                    degree (default).

                             The optional parameter level specifies the chorus
                             level 0 to 127.

                      reverb=(d|n|g|f|G)[,level], --reverb=(d|n|g|f|G)[,level]

                             d, 0 Disable MIDI reverb effect control.

                             n, 1 Enable MIDI reverb effect control. This
                                    effect is only available in stereo.

                             g, 2 Global reverb effect.

                             f, 3 Freeverb MIDI reverb effect control
                                    (default).

                             G, 4 Global freeverb effect.

                             The optional parameter level specifies the reverb
                             level 0 to 127.

                      vlpf=(d|c|m), --voice-lpf=(d|c|m)

                             d, 0 Disable LPF effect.

                             c, 1 Chamberlin resonant LPF (12dB/oct)
                                    (default).

                             m, 2 Moog resonant low-pass VCF (24dB/oct)

                      ns=n, --noise-shaping=n
                             Enable the n th degree noiseshaping filter. The
                             distortion at decay stage is improved, but the
                             noise on human auditory feeling increases because
                             it shifts to a high frequency. In case of 8-bit
                             linear encoding, valid values of n are in the
                             interval from 0 (min) to 4 (max). Default value
                             is 4. In case of 16-bit linear encoding, valid
                             values of n are in the interval from 0 to 4.
                             According to the value, it works as following.
                             Default value is 4.

                             0 No noise shaping.

                             1 Traditional noise shaping.

                             2 Overdrive-like soft-clipping + new noise
                                    shaping.

                             3 Tube-amplifier-like soft-clipping + new
                                    noise shaping.

                             4 New noise shaping.

"envelope":
               e/E, --[no-]mod-envelope
                      Enable/disable modulation envelope controlling.

it is quite a big page, so there is probably more there.
