Some remarks on MIDI stuff.

 Run Fluid-Synth.

>_  sudo fluidsynth --server --audio-driver=alsa -o audio.alsa.device=hw:0 /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2

Run Timidity.

>_ sudo timidity -iA

Timidity vs Fluid-Synth.

In my case, Fluid-Synth works out of the box w/o extra efforts.


Whether real-time Linux kernel is worthy, huh?

Absolutely Nope: user-space is major provider of latencies.

What about Jack?  

Mostly useless too: theoretically it makes possible sophisticated rerouting of midi/audio ports, but in Practice, for simple/cheap systems, it just causes greater lags & extra load on cpu as well.. Professional sound-making studios are always the matter of hardware ;D

MIDI to WAV.

1stly, export or re-export midi from Rosegarden to set instruments in, then..

>_ sudo fluidsynth -F /tmp/Universum\ Vox.wav /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 /tmp/Universum\ Vox.mid

or 

>_ sudo timidity /tmp/Universum\ Vox.mid -Ow --output-stereo
