Mostriamo di seguito il codice per di un semplice applicativo a riga di comando per la riproduzione di file Midi.

Bisogna avere installato Jackd. Una volta lanciato l'applicativo, aprire Jackd e nella scheda "Audio" connettere il dispositivo "Fluidsynth", presente nella colonna "Clients leggibili/Porte d'uscita", al dispositivo "system" presente nella colonna "Clients scrivibili/Porte d'entrata".

Si dovrà, inoltre, individuare un file soundfont bank con estensione .sf2, da far caricare successivamente dalla funzione esterna "fluid_synth_sfload" per poter ottenere i suoni.

Library "libfluidsynth:2.3.1"
