-%description
-FluidSynth is a real-time software synthesizer based on the SoundFont
-2 specifications. FluidSynth can read MIDI events from MIDI input
-devices and render them to audio devices using SoundFont files to
-define the instrument sounds. It can also play MIDI files and supports
-real time effect control via SoundFont modulators and MIDI
-controls. FluidSynth can be interfaced to other programs in different
-ways, including linking as a shared library.
