In Qtractor I can play the tracks through Timidity. The Track
dialogue
offers me sounds from the FLuidR3_GM soundfont and also soundbank-

But these sound identical, and I think only FluidR3_GM is being
used,
which I have set as the default in Timidity.
I would like to use other sound fonts (e.g. Virtual-Playing-
Orchestra3), but I have never worked out how to achieve this.
Virtual-Playing-Orchestra3 is in the sfz format, to use it you'll
something like this:

For using other sf2 files you may checkout this one:

Thank you for those suggestions. I have now managed to get Fluida
installed (in addition to WhySynth). I also now have the relevant
directories showing up in Qtractor's View_Options_Plugins window, and
both items show up in the MIDI/Instrument section of Track Properties.
However, even if I select an instrument from one of these, I still do
not hear the appropriate sounds. I assume that I should be able to
connect WhySynth or Fluida to Qtractor in the Connections window; but
as I mentioned in my previous email, they don't show up there.
Using the MIDI tab of Qtractor's Connections window I have "Midi
Through" and "Qtractor" in the Readable column, and "Midi Through",
"Timidity" and "Qtractor" in the Writable column. If I connect
Qtractor to Timidity, I hear the FluidR3_GM sound regardless of which
Instrument I have selected in Track Properties. If I disconnect
Qtractor and Timidity, then I hear nothing at all.
I am sure there must be something very basic I am missing here, but I
have no idea what to do next. How do I get the Instrument I specify
for a track in the Track Properties window actually to sound when I
play the track in Qtractor?

You need to activate the plugin (the little round toggle beside the
plugin name) and enable 'montor' in the mixer strip for the track you
want to hear.
