Subject: [linux-audio-user] HELP: good sound card

Hi all!
I have ISA sound card AWE 64 with 24 MB RAM extention.
This way I can load the sound font "8mbgmsfx.sf2".
This is the one and only MIDI sound for my ears.
All other techniques for instance software synthesis with
TiMidity++ sounds terrible to me, as if the
orchestra plays in a stock pot.
Now I want to buy a new computer. Unfortunatley, most
boards don't offer a ISA slot, only PCI slots.
Therfore my question: Does anybody has experience with
PCI cards on Linux? Perhaps somebody uses this
(or an similary) sound font with some PCI sound
card. (?)
If so, please send me a recommendation! Note! The
PCM sound is of no interest to me. It doen't matter
whether it noises(or so ...). I'm only interested
in good sound synthesis.
Thank you in advance!
