I would agree that throwing any MIDI file at Timidity generally sounds better than any soundfont combo in iiwusynth or SBlive. > I would therefore like to use iiwusynth but can anybody point me to a > really good soundfont for gerneral purposes (strings, piano, brass,...)? I'd love to see some effort put into a "reference soundfont" so that we could say ie; "such and such piano instrument 1 sounds better|brighter|bigger|warmer|whatever than our reference soundfont instrument". A combination of the best of these two soundfonts and the best *.pat files from various Timidity patch sets would be a great start... my smurf/swami skills are, so far, very limited... http://soundfont.opensrc.org/ --markc ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
