Okay I decoded the flac to .wav format and tried loading it into Smurf,
but Smurf complains that the sample is > 8Mb (it's 24). I don't know if it's 
an inherent limitation of SoundFonts or of the editor. 

I'll poke at it some more, but the fastest way to get it coming out the 
speakers from a note on is to load it into Specimen. Mellotrons didn't have 
any sort of amplitude envelope, crossfading or even zero crossing ability for 
loops so it'd still be authentic sounding.
