Well I'm almost there. I ran this:

timidity -iA -B2,8 -Oj -EFreverb=0

And can connect RG to both my korg and timidity. I still have two problems:

1) "timidity -iA" doesn't have an user interface, what I really want
is to add "-iat" to get a piano role. If I run:

timidity -iA -B2,8 -Oj -EFreverb=0 -iat

Then its not started in in "ALSA server mode" . Is there no way to launch
timidity to be both in "ALSA server mode" and with a UI?

2) The sound coming from timidity when connected to RG is like a
staticy echo tunnel. I usually will have timidity muted as I just need
its piano roll, but it'd be nice to figure out the problem.

Thanks,
Robert
