Renato, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks to David for fixing the bug in Yoshimi through the AUR package (even
though it comes from upstream).

I will focus on Yoshimi for now... big sunday ahead :-) !

Blue skies to all,

Hi everybody,

I'd like to learn more about how to use zynaddsubfx. I know the basic
setup and I understand the most obvious parameters, but is there
something like a manual or an "advanced" tutorial somewhere?

Hi, this
http://wiki.linuxmusicians.com/doku.php?id=3Dzyna=
ddsubfx_manual

was a good read for me; it gives an overview of zyn/yoshimi's internal<=

workings and proceeds to explain pretty much every knob.

>From my limited understanding there are some *major* improvements

yoshimi brought in performance over zynaddsubfx, and I don't think
there is any reason why you should be using zyn instead of yoshimi.

One reason I switched to using Yoshimi instead of Zyn was because Zyn would=
frequently simply hang, unresponsive, when running JACK at what I consider=
ed low latencies (8-16ms). (Other folk on the list probably don't consi=
der that low latency at all.) Yoshimi didn't have that problem.

I THINK Yoshimi uses more CPU than Zyn, never checked to measure.

The Yoshimi UI is cleaner than Zyn's, more readable. I think both of th=
em would benefit by realizing that the typical graphics UI now is much high=
er resolution than the cramped little spaces the UI seems to be designed fo=
r, but that's could be just my opinion.

Thanks to all for the quick and informative replies! =
