- * run_synth()
- *
- * This member is a function pointer that runs a synth for a
- * block. This is identical in function to the LADSPA run()
- * function, except that it also supplies events to the synth.
- *
- * A plugin may provide this function, run_multiple_synths() (see
- * below), both, or neither (if it is not in fact a synth). A
- * plugin that does not provide this function must set this member
- * to NULL. Authors of synth plugins are encouraged to provide
- * this function if at all possible.
- *
- * The Events pointer points to a block of EventCount ALSA
- * sequencer events, which is used to communicate MIDI and related
- * events to the synth. Each event is timestamped relative to the
- * start of the block, (mis)using the ALSA "tick time" field as a
- * frame count. The host is responsible for ensuring that events
- * with differing timestamps are already ordered by time.
- *
- * See also the notes on activation, port connection etc in
- * ladpsa.h, in the context of the LADSPA run() function.
- *
- * Note Events
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~
- * There are two minor requirements aimed at making the plugin
- * writer's life as simple as possible:
- *
- * 1. A host must never send events of type SND_SEQ_EVENT_NOTE.
- * Notes should always be sent as separate SND_SEQ_EVENT_NOTE_ON
- * and NOTE_OFF events. A plugin should discard any one-point
- * NOTE events it sees.
- *
- * 2. A host must not attempt to switch notes off by sending
- * zero-velocity NOTE_ON events. It should always send true ///interesting ..this is probably what was going on with all of those NOTE_ONs, some of them were probably zero velocity
- * NOTE_OFFs. It is the host's responsibility to remap events in
- * cases where an external MIDI source has sent it zero-velocity
- * NOTE_ONs.
- *
- * Bank and Program Events
- * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- * Hosts must map MIDI Bank Select MSB and LSB (0 and 32)
- * controllers and MIDI Program Change events onto the banks and
- * programs specified by the plugin, using the DSSI select_program
- * call. No host should ever deliver a program change or bank
- * select controller to a plugin via run_synth.
