Audio / MIDI support

Damn :/

There is a frontend program: http://qsynth.sourceforge.net/ which can (apparently) dump the output to a file

I don't know if the code is of any help though

Well, you can point people to instrument sets on the net, like freepats (~30mb package), which is under the gplv2

Windows has a system called DLS (or DownLoadable Sounds), its supposed to be a patch system (and there is even specs for it on the net), most systems (XP+) come with a GM.DLS file

Ah nice, wildmidi seems to work well, I tried out the midi player.

I found that you can put a standard timidity.cfg (which points to the location of the sf2's/gus patches) in the directory where the wildmidi library is located, that works well on windows atleast.

It appears the latest version of wildmidi is released under GPLv2 (including the library), but the author stated on his website that it has been changed to (L)GPLv3 in newer source files.

You could take the SDL approach, but use a much much newer version of timidity, like timidity++.

Not the best option, but the only option for unices?  :?

Does SFML support MIDI at all?

I tried writing a small program, while I got the other formats to work, midi files don't.
