lots of patches if one has say a load of midi tracks going on versus coyo
which does it automatically.

i did come across x42 and even dloaded it...but win went bonkers with a warning when i tried to install.

anyhoo ive posted a wish in wishlists for a good gm plugin sorta like the ease of use of coyo but better gm sounds.

respect.

Right, thanks.

As I'm sure you know, sforzando won't handle multiple instruments, so it's a long way from GM compliant.
I've found VSTSynthFont performs well, but we certainly agree that it's clumsy to manage.

I installed the x42 synth, but it's LV2 only, so BiaB won't recognise it. Windows popped up a warning that the publisher was unknown, but I've long know of Robin, so I wasn't too worried about proceeding with the install.
