- ssssyyyynnnntttthhhheeeeddddiiiittttoooorrrr allows users to edit and modify the active presets and voices
- in mmmmiiiiddddiiiissssyyyynnnntttthhhh in real time, and also functions as an editor for modifying
- or creating synthesizer preset files (see ssssyyyynnnntttthhhhpppprrrreeeesssseeeetttt(4)).

- Listen on MIDI channel <chan>. Default is channel 1.
-
- ----nnnnoooommmmiiiiddddiiii
- Do not communicate with mmmmiiiiddddiiiissssyyyynnnntttthhhh(1) via MIDI. This mode is useful

- specified, ssssyyyynnnntttthhhheeeeddddiiiittttoooorrrr will load the same preset file as mmmmiiiiddddiiiissssyyyynnnntttthhhh
- has loaded on the given channel. If ----nnnnoooommmmiiiiddddiiii was specified, then a
- default preset is loaded.
