Trying to get BGB to play without choppy sound and graphics

[SketchMan3]

I've been trying to use BGB (version 1.3.2 which has been tested to work in Wine), a Windows Gameboy emulator in wine for music composition purposes because it has a wav output feature which makes it easier to record the music.

I was able to get it to run, but it's just really choppy, and sometimes takes extra time to register key presses.

Does anybody have any tips on getting it to run more smoothly?

PS: Please don't suggest KiGB unless you can help figure out how to get it running. I followed their instructions, but nothing happens when I run the program.
