[LAU] timidity woes

[naysayer]

does anyone know an alternative to timidity.
i am finding it incredibly unstable and fickle. i like how it has all the
general midi sounds(as horrid as they are) all set up and on the standard
programs and channels, but it seems to crash all the time when using jack
and midi apps. i can't figure out what it is that is causing me the grief
but i need an alternative to compose(notation) with.

i know there are things like fluidsynth but it requires such maintenance and
programming patches it seems a little counter intuitive when i need to get
ideas on the page fast.

thanks.
