Still can't work out how to access the other sounds in this font.
For clarification: When the "Program" number is set to anything from -1 to 127 it works fine and plays all the right instruments as long as the "Bank" number is set to -1. After that, it does the sound effects in the 123-128 banks, but nothing else. As I said, I tried to set the "Program" number to 15 and the "bank" number to 12 for this particular soundfont, and instead of getting the Christmas Bells I was expecting, I got the Dulcimer, which is "Program" number 15 in the 0 "Bank". I don't know what I'm doing wrong... On 3/03/2017 11:32 AM, Sharni Ward wrote: > So do I!
