Is there a reason you can't use software? Fluidsynth/Qsynth is
efficient, sounds great, and will load any SoundFont file that you
might've wanted to load on to your sound card's synth. I regularly use
LinuxSampler, too, for Gigastudio and SFZ files.

I actually had a SoundBlaster Live, with a similar on-board synth, in my
studio PC until very recently, but I never used the synth -- it's just
not worth the hassle when I can fire up Qsynth, or a Fluidsynth plugin
within a sequencer like Qtractor, to do the same thing.

Thanks
