Vquestor, I am not entirely certain of my numbers but I believe 16256 corresponds to Bank 127. You can check this by looking at the midi part of Yamaha Styles. They often use numbers such as this. As noted previously LiveSynth Pro has no trouble with these bank designations. In general, you do not have to worry to much about the melodic or drum designations with soundfonts. The only area where these things become factors is with samplers that strickly adher to the GM standard (drums on channel 10 and in bank 128), e.g., VSampler, rgc Audio's sfz+, etc.
Vquestor & Tony thanks for your kindness. The good news is that both my wife and I got more out of life then we deserved. In addition to all this we are both mentally challenged and still we survived in this complicated world - by our own means.
Thank you very much Frank.
Your contributions to the area of completely software based music performance systems, have been astronomical. I think I speak on behalf of all your fans, when I say, "we really appreciate all you have done, and still need you, so please stick around."
