Summary:
  C: A Software Synthesizer for Linux
Description:
  C: >-
    <p>
        Yoshimi is a MIDI software synthesizer for Linux. It synthesizes in real time, can run polyphonic and/or monophonic in multiple
    simultaneous patches in one or more MIDI channels and has broad microtonal capability. It includes extensive additive, subtractive,
    and PAD synth capabilities which can be run simultaneously within the same patch. It also has comprehensive effects capabilities.
        </p>
    <p>
        Originally based on the 2.4.0 version of ZynAddSubFX (Copyright 2002-2009 Nasca Octavian Paul), development of Yoshimi has
    continued for quite a while now in its own direction. Originally these included major optimizations for audio and MIDI performance.
    More recently there has been progressive development of user-level access to all controls, including command line access. Since V1.5.0
    there is full Midi Learn capability.
        </p>
    <p>
        In the V1.7.x series ALSA MIDI can search for and connect to all viable sources, almost all controls have been made realtime,
    both key and channel aftertouch have been implemented and there is now the ability to change the panning law. Refinement continues,
    both visually and within the code.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.0 brings fully resizable windows, MIDI sync for LFOs, and extensions to panning control.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.1.0 extends MIDI sync for Effects where relevant, and adds extensions to NRPNs. There is also a new HTML User Guide.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.2.0 sees a major revision of the PadSynth engine allowing significant morphing of the wavetables in real-time.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.0 has backward compatible high resolution controls where relevant and comprehensive GUI theme management enabling
    user defined colours.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.1 has improved microtonal scales and the ability to export .scl and .kbm files.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.2 adds the ability to set different left/right repeat rates in the Echo effect.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.3 has improved memory management, extension to keyboard shortcuts, better configuration control, and expands theme
    colour control, and adds realtime theme editing.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.3 has a new 'Omni' mode added. Warnings provided when overwriting edited  instruments. Revision of XML files for
    cross-compatibility with MXML versions.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.5 has a set of LFOs added to the SubSynth engine. Also tooltip sizes now track the respective window size.
        </p>
    <p>
        Version 2.3.6 now has part kit mode Crossfade Volume as well as crosfade velocity.
        It is also compatible with old and new versions of MXML and FLTK, and can run under the wayland windowing system.
