 go to play a Midi file, It sound like the reverb is set to max and bass 
 is set to almost none...I have to turn the speakers up to hear the bass 
 parts in my music 

 For Reference:  I'm using KMIDI (or KMID) either produces the same 
 results... And kernel 2.0.34
Try using timidity.  Install the timidity-patches,  too -- they sound
_much_ better than most of the other ones I've heard around.

Hi,
I never get my midi port working with my SoundBlaster pnp 16. For
now, i would suggest using timidity to play midi files, they are nice, but
will use a lot of cpu...

when the kernel 2.2.0 comes out, you can have a go on that, I
believe the new kernel will be able to handle pnp cards very well.

If you are running a mixer program, check to see if something is set
badly.  In any case, the SB16 is pretty crude as a midi player.  You might
want to install timidity and timidity-patches.  This uses a bit of disk
space, but sounds MUCH better.
