I was wondering if it would be too difficult to allow Yoshimi to have
more than one stereo pair for outputs? I currently run multiple
instances of Yoshimi so that each voice can get their own bus in
Ardour's mixer, where I can freely automate the faders, panning, and
effects in my sequences. I reckon that it would much cleaner to be
able to do this with only one instance of Yoshimi and one .xmz file.

A genuinely interesting idea! I get horribly confused over voices and
parts - I take it you mean each Part feeds a pair of jack ports, right?

That would be rather wonderful. And to add to the thought: how about separate
MIDI ins for each ??? *grin*

OK, I might be dreaming. It's what happens when one is in regular email
conversation with shockingly excellent developers of really artistic code for
really artistic purposes :-)

J.E.B.


Such functionality would be great! But separate MIDI inputs is not necessary I think. Every part can run on its own MIDI channel. If you then program your controllers/sequencers correspondingly there is no need for separate MIDI ins. Just connect them to the Yoshimi MIDI input port and Yoshimi will only produce sound from a part when that part receives a note-on on its specific channel.
Unless you need to use more than 16 parts. But then that part of Yoshimi has to be adapted too because you can't have more than 16 parts. And that's no coincidence if you ask me ;)

Best,

Jeremy
