I recently ported audio/amsynth to FreeBSD and that supports midi keyboards w/o needing to deal with jack. The OSS output still seems a bit iffy, audio from alsa has a lot of static in it, the alsa-mmap output is clear as expected but selecting OSS audio output doesn't work at all. I have to work on that and try to get the fix upstream. If I can get rid of qjackctl then I can use OSS to route audio from program to program w/o the need that tool. I am currently working on audio/amsynth and audio/yoshimi but other audio synths can be updated as well. Anyone in here makes music on FreeBSD who would be interested in this project?
