Hi, Stéphane

and thank You very much for Your prompt answer :)
Unfortunately, I still can't play midi using Double Bass {43}...
What else do I have to do or what do I have to correct and how?
Are You able to use Double Bass on Your PC? If so, could You, please, 
copy / paste
Your timidity.cfg, freepats.cfg and tell me what are the other important 
settings/parameters?

Thanks once again.
BestRegards~~Piotrek~~pe3no.


*********************************************************
"TEST 01" - still unable to play Double Bass {43} midi files
*********************************************************

1.1. I placed sound font file in "/etc/timidity/acbass.sf2"

1.2. I changed my "/etc/timidity/timidity.cfg" - it has two uncommented 
lines now.
    source /etc/timidity/freepats.cfg
    soundfont /etc/timidity/acbass.sf2 order=0

1.3. I changed my "/etc/timidity/freepats.cfg" - I added line 43, 
following Your advice:
[...]
 42    Tone_000/042_Cello.pat
 43    %font /etc/timidity/acbass.sf2    0    1
 44    Tone_000/044_Tremolo_Strings.pat
[...]

1.4. I restarted Timidity++
$ sudo /etc/init.d/timidity restart
 * Stopping TiMidity++ ALSA midi emulation...                            
[ OK ]
 * Starting timidity
 * Starting TiMidity++ ALSA midi emulation...                            
[ OK ]

1.5. I still can't to play a midi containing Double Bass {43}
$ timidity test43.mid

1.6. I tried suggestions from Your first e-mail, but I received the same 
error...
"43    %font /etc/timidity/acbass.sf2    0    43"
"Couldn't load instrument /etc/timidity/acbass.sf2 (tone bank 0, program 43)
