[linux-audio-user] The Open Loop Library, a few questions

[Darren Landrum]

Can Soundfonts handle samples at any bit widths and sample rates other 
than 16/48?

Then again, the vast majority of hardware synths are still just 16/48, 
although I believe Roland is making a series of keyboards that have 
24/96 sample sets within them.

Also, I believe that Soundfonts were designed specifically with the 
SoundBlaster cards in mind, so is there a proprietary issue with using 
these for our library?

Thank you for the reply, Mr. Redfern.

Regards,
Darren Landrum
