(:-/) I just tried installing the synth files in both /boot/beos/etc/synth/ and /boot/common/etc/synth/. Neither works on my system with the BeOS version of InternalMIDI! The soundfont selector stays stubbornly empty. I haven't a clue what the difference might be. So I'd suggest (to Ralph) that recompilation is the way to go. (It needs a suitable Makefile, though, unless ther's a way of handling BeIDE projects in Haiku. Is there?) -- Pete --
