Very good to hear.

I don't have much experience with SoundFonts, but they sound like a good alternative. Are there any good, free, SoundFont banks out there that are not too big to put in the final OpenBeOS download? (By the way, Michael Pfeiffer already wrote some code to reverse engineer the format used by the BeOS softsynth. You can find his code in /current/src/tests/kits/midi/synth_file_reader.) Matthijs
