Sorry, I think I just misunderstood.

aplaymidi is really just for testing, it's not meant for serious use.

For regular MIDI playback, like Gene said, kmid is probably the best

As for the tuning slider, you are saying you want to be able to tune the
SBLive's synth?  That's not supported unfortunately.
