NAME

       Qsynth - A fluidsynth Qt GUI Interface

SYNOPSIS

       qsynth [options] [soundfonts] [midifiles]

DESCRIPTION

       Qsynth  is  a fluidsynth GUI front-end application written in C++ around the Qt 4 toolkit.
       Eventually it may evolve into a softsynth management  application  allowing  the  user  to
       control  and  manage  a  variety of command line softsynth but for the moment it wraps the
       excellent FluidSynth.
