The problem I face with Yoshimi is that it seems impossible to tweak the
parameters in xiz-file to get the same sound of the kickdrum that I had
in ZynSubAddFX.
I would think that a solution to the above is probably at hand. What
are tonal aspects you have been having trouble achieving in Yoshimi?

I recorded the output from ZASFX and Yoshimi for the same xiz-file, here:

kickdrum0001.xiz http://ubuntuone.com/7aV2e6n04iW5OgsPxaciPR
kickdrum0001_zasfx.wav http://ubuntuone.com/6UlJeuKHkIHju6MsP3YUhA
kickdrum0001_yoshimi.wav http://ubuntuone.com/35VjCMziCuLrQBfncy4jt1

I'm now in a position to start looking at these sorts of things. I can confirm
the difference, and that the problem doesn't occur in version 0.036, but does
in version 0.060.8.rc1. I can't check the intermediate versions at the moment
so
can't yet discover where the change occurred.

I spent part of the day re-installing debian squeeze on a spare computer :(

However, I can now run a lot of older images, and zero in to some degree on
where this sound changes. Unfortunately there are two places. The first is
between V0.038 (which sounds exactly the same) and 0.047. There is then another
change between 0.047 and 0.055.3

There are no further changes that I can detect after this.

What is really puzzling is that I can't find *any* other sound that changes
over this range of versions, although once again, I've a feeling it's
connected with filters.

Does anyone else have the sources for intermediate versions tucked away? If so
I'd greatly appreciate copies so I can close in further on the changes.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
