Hi! First you might try and take a look at your alsamixer-settings. Use something like alsamixer or anything gui-based if you like it more. And take a look if the internal midi-synth or device is turned on (unmuted) and volume is raised. In alsamixer a muted device is marked with and "M" or "MM" at the top of the column. You can move the cursor to the right, even after the last displayed column on the screen, the next ones will appear, there's simply not enough space for all of them in textmode. Then try a simple tool first to test the midi-device. Say take a look with pmidi, the small alsa-midi-player. With pmidi -l you can see all known midi-devices. Just take a look if it is there and try to play something through it. I don't know if this can work, because I don't think that pmidi supports loading a soundfont itself. If at least confirmed, that _alsa_ knows your device. Go ahead with rosegarden or iiwusynth by Peter Hanappe, I don't know where you can find that one, but you can find a link to it at: http://linux-sound.org. iiwusynth can load soundfonts. If this doesn't help to solve your problem, just write again. In a few hours, I know that there are guys, who can help you. Kindest regards Julien
