Timidity is on my list as the weirdest and most convoluted piece of code i've 
ever read.  I attempted to figure out which kind of CCs and RPMs did it 
support and I totally failed. The source code is so messy that i dont think
It's worth dealing with unless you have a lot of time.. I suppose the good 
side of it is that it works with fixed point math so it should run on PDAs?
(unlike fluidsynth). I have mailed the mantainer several times and got no 
answer either.
