Hi.
I try about 2 months ago yoshimi version 0.061-pre7.
But those version had seqfault while starting application - so I
couldn't use it.
So I thought that when this issue will be fixed I will try fixed version
later.
And now I try actually newest available version of yoshimi: 0.062-pre2.
After little problems in compilation I make it and install it.
And it runs!
But there was another problems - I had many segfaults when I wanted to
load some instrument - then application just stoped to work.
Not all instruments gived me segfault, but most of them.
Another problem was that menu options didn't appear.
When I clicked on Yoshimi, Instrument, Parameters or Scale then the text
of menu changed background color but submenu didn't appear - so I
couldn't use any options from menu.
And the last thing is that in this version still don't check timestamp.
So this version also have midi jitter as yoshimi version 0.058 or
zynaddsubfx.
This problem is still don't resolved in yoshimi.

But there is hope for resolving midi jitter at all for this kind of
soft-synths.
There exist LV2 zynaddsubfx version which is called zynadd and can be
runned from zynjacku host for LV2 synths.

!!!! AND THERE ARE NO MIDI JITTER IN THIS VERSION !!!!!!

But this version have much less features than native zynaddsubfx or
yoshimi :( (unfortunatelly)
Maybe in future versions of LV2 zynadd will have all features than
native zynaddsubfx, who knows?

Anyway, you can look at source of zynadd and see how timestamping and
midi issue is soluted there.
And you can use simmilar solution in yoshimi - which will give midi
timing issue resolved.
What you think about that?

Anyway, thanks in advance for a reply.
