Coupla quick points:  The 8mbgssfx.sf2 and 8mbgmgs.sf2 soundfonts are 
also quite high quality and a nice size.  The Hammersound site is your 
friend.

Also, sfArkXTc.exe runs just fine under Wine for expanding sfArk files 
such as the excellent fluidr3.sfArk soundfont.

Just began using Swami this week and I cleaned out some dead wood wave 
samples from my favorite fonts, and discovered this app does a nice job 
of splitting and merging soundfonts.  Very nice program!

Finally, loading multiple soundfonts into fluidsynth and then importing 
and merging the font banks in Rosegarden really makes using multiple 
instrument voices from multiple soundfont sets a piece of cake, or as 
some might say a Cakewalk.
