Description

A real-time software synthesizer that plays MIDI using SoundFont 2 instrument banks. It can be used by music applications, command-line workflows, games, and audio setups that need MIDI sound generation.

Use it when your system or music software needs a local SoundFont-based synthesizer. Audio routing and latency depend on the sound server, drivers, and chosen SoundFont.
