Dan,

As I remember it, the (original) version of Synthfont64 provided by PG Music includes a custom set of patches that is GM compatible.

If you upgrade Synthfont64, as long as you have the GM patches all current versions of Synthfont64 will automatically load the GM compatible patches inside Band-in-a-Box. I'm not sure if it works the same way in RealBand64 as I haven't tested it.

I don't use Synthfont64 as my default DXi/VST soft synth. I've used Cakewalk by Bandlab's TTS-1 since it was originally released as a Twelve Tone product in 2005.
