Looks great!
I think we should probably call the Synth class synth.PatchSynth() - it's not actually a base class for all synthesizers, although the voice rotation stuff probably should be a base class. What we currently call Synth is explicitly "a synthesizer constructed from voices that use the voices preset/stored patches mechanism".
I think in the future we'll have a VoicesSynth base-class that handles note-stealing, and PatchSynth will be a thin specialization of it, but that can come later.
I think the PCMSynth class that Douglas is kinda asking for will be a good future addition too.

douglas gave us good feedback about midi.py having all the Synth stuff in it was a bit confusing, so here's a first pass at separating out these. docs updated as well.
