Comments:       TCE generates audio by reading and handling MIDI events 
                from MIDI input devices by using a SoundFont. It is the 
                software analogue of a MIDI synthesizer.
                supports sf2 sf3 dls files 
                Alsa pulseaudio & pipewire need setup first

                Can play MIDI files. First run
                $ sudo modprobe snd-seq-midi
                Tested alsa only but supports alsa file pipewire pulseaudio & 
                portaudio so next edit to suit
$ fluidsynth /usr/local/share/soundfonts/default.sf2 /path2/mid.mid

                While its runs- it runs in a daemon mode and accepts commands like help
                settings
