The oomidi team is using

MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT NON_MODAL 0 0 0 SFZ 
'@@OOM_SOUNDS@@/sonatina/Sonatina\x20Symphonic\x20Orchestra/Strings\x20-\x201st\x20Violins\x20Sustain.sfz'

@@OOM_SOUNDS@@ links to /usr/share/sounds or ~/.sounds somehow. Both 
places are not ideal imho.

Suggestions?

Btw here are some templates of the oomidi team for LinuxSampler 
https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM/tree/master/Oomidi_templates

Please test the sonatina.midnam file and the Sonatina lscp file and let 
me know what an good setup for orchestral composing is, or change it 
yourself and share your experiences.
