I set up the VOXWARE stuff all fine and dandy, but midis just sound really, really bad, if they play at all. Sometimes, there is no playback at all, sometimes I get a core dump. When I say they sound really bad, I mean the notes are the wrong instraments or not played, and sound off-tone. I have a SB32 PnP configured with Luigi's PnP driver running on FreeBSD 2.2.5. The card has 2MB of onboard memory for loading soundfonts. Thanks a lot, this problem has been bothering me for the 2 years I've been running FreeBSD. - Chris Brunner - - cjb@efn.org -
