Hello Folks,
This is a very interesting subject. In the last 2 weeks or so I have been playing around with sound fonts using OMB, Vienna, and recently Sound Font Librarian. I am very impressed with what can be done. Having used SF for GM playback for a long time thru a SB Live! Value I never even guessed how flexible the SF format was. I REALLY like the way I can "rip" sounds from GM banks and use them, along with single SF's, to create a "home bank" to use with OMB. My only problem is I don't have enough memory in my system (384mb)to use the BIG SF's. But adding memory looks like a cheaper way to get great sounds than buying another mod or board.
I will be watching for more post's about this with great interest...
