One thing you could try, assuming you use zyn under jack and it gets kicked

zynaddsubfx actually "recovering" because it doesn't kicked by jack so
quickly.

Hi,
I've been trying to set up ZynAddSubFX to perform professionally and
while in theory all is a bed of roses I just can't get the darn thing to
be at least REASONABLY stable enough so I would actually even allow
myself to THINK about going near a stage. No way with this pile of junk.
I've not had much by way of stability problems I could positively lay
at Zyn's door.
Don't get me wrong it sounds great, but under
real time circumstances
the thing just breaks down. I just can't count the amount of time I
spend re-opening patches.
Zyn doesn't seem to like repeated re-loads of patches/instrunents or
parameters. My workaround is set up a complete parameter file per song,
then launch Zyn by running the file (need option -l). I then kill Zyn
when I have finished with that parameter setup (wash, rinse, repeat).
Zyn seems to take up more processor time for every instrument loaded
(up to the maximum of 16) so I make sure that saved parameter files only
contain the ones I want.
