fluidsynth (software synthesizer)

FluidSynth is a software real-time synthesizer based on the Soundfont
2 specifications. FluidSynth reads and handles MIDI events from the
MIDI input device. It is the software analogue of a MIDI synthesizer.
FluidSynth can also play MIDI files using a Soundfont.

Optional dependencies: ladspa_sdk, lash, portaudio, jack, SDL2. These
are autodetected at build time, but can be disabled via the environment.
