I'm just curious about who in the PG community is using soundfonts instead of GM.






Hello...

Um, so a GM Soundfont Bank doesn't count?

Look, GM, "General MIDI" is simply a definition of the first bank of 129 patches, what their names should be and which number corresponds to that instrument.

Don't fall for the notion that "GM" means something other than that.

You can have a very fine sounding GM bank, or you could have a very cheezy sounding GM bank, the fact that the instruments are assigned to the GM standard has nothing whatsoever to do with that.
