Lucky for you the games lead has some history with real MIDI hardware. ;) I think the best option would be to make the choice explicit by adding a native-midi flag. What do you think? Hi, using the native-midi would indeed take care of the confusion part at least =). In any case, I'm a bit indifferent on how to solve, I'd like someone more knowledgeable to decide =). But if I think about it, indeed the ability to enable/disable softsynths should be retained, so your suggestion would be better indeed. Personally, I've already "solved" this by a local overlay (I have a bit of a thin setup and a slow computer and didn't want any softsynth there). |
