Hi, sorry if this is obvious to you, but just in case, you'd
probably need a soundfont (like fluidr3) and a soundfont player (like
qsynth) to have sound - maybe rosegarden has a built-in soundfont
player?
No, it doesn't. That's what qsynth, whysynth or Timidity (if you can
make it work) is for.
Anyway you should be able to make it output the
midi of the
track to qsynth (using qjackctl), and therefore have sound.
RG 11.11.42 just automatically connects.
I use RG mostly for scores. Bringing in a MIDI file usually requires
some cleanup. For one thing, RG prefers contrapuntal compositions to
have a separate track for each of the melodies, while lots of MIDIs from
the web have all the melodies on the same track.
Maybe it's more easy to load a dssi plugin (fluidsynth dssi) in rosegarden.
