There used to be a lot of them on KVR, they are probably still there, but they've reorganised the site since I last looked and I can't find them now. Hermann's link is pretty good, but bear in mid some are individual instruments and some others are inside 'foreign' wrappers. >I also copied a bunch of Zyn "banks" into Yoshimi's banks folder, but >they're all subfolders and Yoshimi doesn't seem to find them. How to fix >this? I suspect what you did was to try to install a bank *root* as a bank. >From the main window you should go to 'Paths->Bank Root Dirs...' This will open a window where you click on 'Add Root Directory' and this opens a browser that allows you to add the new one to the list. Yoshimi will then treat all subdirectores as banks - provided they contain instruments. >Along the way, I tried Zyn with its shiny zyn-fusion interface.

Any ideas on how to convince X >to provide real high-rez fonts, or use scalable fonts? This is something that has been under discussion for some time. It seems there is a good chance that FLTK will release version 1.4 this year and this does include scaling. HTH -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
