It is my understanding that Yoshimi is Will's attempt to add value to
the original ZynAddSubFx. Why he doesn't contribute to the original
project, I have no idea, instead he splits the development effort
between his fork (Yoshimi), and the original project (ZynAddSubFx).
Zyn is still actively developed, although I see Yoshimi getting more
mentions on this list for some reason.
That is my understanding after talking to some of the Linux Audio
community. If I am wrong, I am open to corrections.

What is
the difference between:
2) yoshimi and zynsubaddfx ?
Instrument wise - none.
Control wise - quite a lot.
Wasn't there a difference in real-time safe functions used by one or the
other? I thought I heard several months ago that one had been making sure
the audio callback routines used only real-time safe system calls, but one
had non-real time safe functions used, which was causing some problems for
someone trying to run a large number of synth instances (not all active,
some were just sitting idle).
