No, it's a live looping tool that can sample and repeat loops on the fly.

http://freewheeling.sourceforge.net/

It does have an interface for controlling fluidsynth built into it.

I think I'm more or less doing what Patrick wants by using
freewheeling in conjunction with jack-rack, qsampler, specimen, etc.,
but it sounds like he wants control over it all from one application,
or perhaps something scriptable, whereas i'm alt-tabbing like mad in
the middle of performance, and may actually be the human equivalent of
what he wants.

i'm imagining csound or pd to be the way to go.
