Yoshimi
A Software synthesizer for Linux
A software synthesizer for Linux, originally forked from ZynAddSubFX (Copyright 2002-2009 Nasca Octavian Paul) in 2009 by Alan Calvert. Initially, Yoshimi delivered the same synthesizer capabilities. After early improvement of Jack and Alsa midi/audio performance, now many new features have been added, and we are concentrating on accessibility. Yoshimi comes with a built-in User Guide, and there is also a highly detailed Advanced Reference Manual under continuous development: https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi-doc/raw/master/pdf/yoshimi-advanced-reference-manual.pdf -

AGS - Advanced Gtk+ Sequencer
audio sequencer
Advanced GTK+ Sequencer is intended to use for music composition. It features a piano roll, as well a synth, matrix editor, drum machine, soundfont2 player, mixer and an output panel. It's designed to be highly configurable, you may add effects to its effect chain, add or remove audio channels/pads. You may set up a fully functional network of engines, therefore exists a link editor for linking audio lines. In conjunction with ags you need a realtime kernel and alsa support. `ags` uses conditional locks to keep several threads in sync that's why you need at least a preemptible kernel. -
