Just something to keep in mind. I don't know about your hardware, but
with mine, theres a limit on the size of a sound font that can be loaded
into the wave table. When I tried to load a 128MB file, only certain
sounds got loaded. But with Timidity using the same sound font, it all
loaded and was usable. Just something to keep in mind. I'm glad someone
else posted this (prior) to me aquiring the 128MB sound font. Otherwise,
I would have loaded it into the wave table and assumed that there were
only a few sounds in the sound font. I probly would have disgaurded the
sound font and lost out on some really good sounds.
