Good to know that the list is your last option. That will make success so much sweeter knowing that you can do it by yourself :) What card are you using? I'm guessing the sblive. Unless you really need the onboard wavetable you may want to look into timidity. There is a howto on the LAU-guide (see below) and also a working set of nicely tuned sound fonts c/o eawpats team. I have tar.gz them to save people the hassle of getting and installing the compression algorythm/api they use. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
