from muse or rosegarden4.

Howdy!
I can load them fine using sfxload. I am still figuring out Rosegarden,
I can't figure out how to change where Rosegarden is seqnuenced to (how
do you change it's program or bank, it always playes 0 on channel 0 on
the emu10k1 "piano").
Now, programmatically, I figure out what I needed to know. To write a
program to sequence to the wavetable, first I do a bank change message,
and than a program change. This was what I really needed to know how to
do and it works fine this way.
I'll get back to rosegarden and figure it out. I finally figured out how
to record (the ding-bat window comes up with those controls invisible
for some reason). Rosegarden is a very impressive program, it can show
you the literal notes in note format, or edit it the way I like as a
MIDI track file format.
Now to figure out how to set a loop in it and I'm set. And how to change
the instrument it is playing to. I really think it's nice looking and
very professional. I am aspiring to be able to write Linux apps that
look that nice.
