No, that must have been the problem. Now I have a new problem, because I've tried several soundfonts, and some of them don't work at all (no sound), and some of them produce a really scary noise. I think they all came from either the SBLive cd or my old Soundblaster CD. Maarten> (You could use the 8gmgsmt.sf2 (i think) soundfont that Maarten> comes on the SBLive driver cd) One of the ones that produces a scary noise is called 8mbgmsfx.sf2. Is that what you're thinking of? I don't seem to have an 8gmgsmt.sf2. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@xxxxxxxxxxxx , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139
