Thanks for this, guys.
You are right, .gig is superior to sf2.
But how/where should one record/edit gig-drums?
Hydrogen doesn't import gig's.
Rosegarden and Qtractor don't have dedicated drum editors (although
rosegarden has its inner LinuxSampler plugin which is good for melodic
instruments only)
Rosegarden HAVE a drum editor ! click on a track and "D"
What is the drums.gig you use ??
The only midi sequencer that has a drum editor and can
work with
giga-files as far as I know is Muse. But I can't figure out how to
create a separate channel for each of the instruments, with the option
to control the vol/pan/fx.
Any ideas here?
Tapeutape, driven by Rosegarden. Outs of Tapeutape recorded in
Ardour.
HTH, Fred.

I keep on getting Xruns when trying to work with

I was
running them through Qsynth, but I read on the
net that the
combination of Qsynth, Rosegarden/Muse and Ardour is regarded as not
so stable?
Thus, if you don't mind sharing your experience, I will be thankful.
What is the best way that you use Soundfont banks in Linux?
By 'best', I mean the most stable way, without X-runs and
listing/access to all the banks and instruments in a soundfont.
Hi Viktor,
Do you try to run Fluidsynth directly from Rosegarden ? (you can
find it
in "synth plugin" on the left pannel)
You can have several runs of it, one for each MIDI track, each one can
load his sound as you like.
On my old P4 + 1GbRAM can run 10 tracks with no problem (don't
have test
more cause don't need yet)
Is running fluidsynth from a command line a
better alternative then
qsynth and why?
(fluidsynth command line: how does one create a midi input and audio
output port for each sf2 bank?)
Don't know ! But think that Fluid is just
a GUI for Q (not sure of
that)
Can you please tell me your experience in buying professional
.gig or
.sf2 sounds?
Strings, pianos, accordeons especially.
Sites, prices, quality?
I don't use yet... Maybe a good idea ? If you do
so, could you please
let me know ?
What is better for profesional results: .sf2 or .gig?
Well, do you think a
bank including 127 differents sounds and a
complete
drumset in less 100M can compete
with another one including only 1 instrument in more 1G ?? ;o))
thanks in advance
Viktor
Greets,
