as default, the maximal memory size for soundfont is limited to 128MB. this is configurable via module option of snd-emu10k1. pass max_buffer_size=256, for example, to riase the max size to 256MB. see alsa-kernel/Documentation/ALSA-Configuration.txt for details. ciao, Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
