Hello

Is it possible to play a MIDI file inside the Fluidsynth CLI in Windows ?

Thanks a lot

Did I post in the wrong forum, can someone at least tell me of a GUI or frontend for Fluidsynth in Windows ?

Thanks a lot

I don’t use Windows, but there is a GUI front end for linux called Qsynth.

I also use Linux, yes but looking for a GUI front end in Windows, how to contact the dev of Fluidsynth then ?

Apparently, according to Wikipedia, QSynth can be successfully compiled for Windows:

Yes I was able to find the contact info on https://www.fluidsynth.org/

I have no clue how to compile QSynth on Windows, but the link below has some compiled .exe Setup files for QSynth 0.33-0.36 on Windows x86 and QSynth 0.9.9/0.9.11 on Windows x64.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/qsynth/files/

I cannot get any of these to work. QSynth 0.33-0.36 crashes, and QSynth 0.9.9/0.9.11 will not load, any idea what's wrong ?

What's your goal? There's SynthFont (free V.1 and paid V.2) with MIDI file and SoundFont support.

Just play a midi in Fluidsynth. Yes I know of SynthFont, it is nice, but I'm only looking for a soundfont MIDI player
