Enabling Frescobaldi MIDI output
Jun 21, 2020
One minute read

Trying to export a composition engraved with lilypond to MIDI, I have found out that it was not properly set up. The resulting MIDI was mute, even though I could see its contents using Audacity.

The solution lies in this post. After installing a MIDI to Wave converter and player called timidity and starting its daemon:

sudo apt-get install timidity
sudo service timidity start

A Timidity port 0 should be available after refreshing Midi Settings as player output option in the Edit > Preferences > Midi Settings in Frescobaldi.
