the other week I asked about #software for connecting my USB #midi #keyboard to #Linux

this has been perfect just for getting sound out of it, I can add more advanced stuff later with other programs

I use this line on Ubuntu:
fluidsynth -a alsa /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2

You have to install fluidsynth and pick a sound font. I tested some of them, FluidR3 was the one that sounded best. I think it comes with soundfont-fluid.

I have to run it again everytime, it has no UI at all, but sounds great, and works like a charm.
