I should also mention that Pianoteq has made a native Linux version. I know
it's an excellent product, and the reviews of its Linux performance are
glowing. Of course, Linuxers are often not used to paying for software, but
we can't have it both ways: if we want commercial support, we should from
time to time support commercial products that take the plunge into the
Linux-land market! My two cents, anyway. :)

I never found a really good piano .SF2; this is
why I set up
LinuxSampler. Right now I am using the one they provide on their web
site, and it's pretty good, but when I get the $ I'm going to try to
find a Bosendorfer .gig I read about a while back. I have always wanted
to play a Bosendorfer since I heard of them, and the .gig I heard of was
$40, I was told it is excellent.

For years I used a Steinway soundfont that was $5 on the internets. Worked
well, sounded well.
Lately I use the Old Lady Gigasample in LinuxSampler for recording
purposes.
Live I use a very simple piano soundfont lifted from a PC52 or some such
General Midi soundfont, because it is lightweight and doesn't use up too
much CPU on my EEE, and also because it cuts through the mix with almost
headache-inducing force.

Hey Jonathan,
What piano soundfont did you find the best? I'm looking for a really
good one here.
