To compare Timidity you really need to
-EFreverb=0 -EFdelay=0 -EFchorus=0
These three options were active.
Thanks to your comparison mp3s I would not bother using FluidSynth
for anything. These and your other examples indicate this obnoxious
attack and again, it sounds nearly a semi-tone too high.
Ok, but I regard the semi-tone as a minor problem.
BTW how did you record the output from the SBlive to wav ?
I have Audigy2 and I simply used
acreord -f wav -t S16_LE -r 44100 -d 60 -c 2 <file>.wav
With "amixer" I set the "capture" slider to maximum and there
is still a slider "music capture". I set this slider to
maximum, too. That's all.
