yes, that's true: the channel 10 = percussion thing is one percussion sound per MIDI note, whereas the other instruments are a single instrument with different pitches for each note. > > (2) even if thery /were/ listed, I'd have to retype it all by hand.

The list is the list of instruments provided by the soundfont one for each program number, they can be assigned to any channel except channel 10 (I think that's the way it works). > > (3) In wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_MIDI , the percussion > mapping shown doesn't seem to correspond to the default percussion in the > denemo > soundfount. Correct me if i'm wrong and crazy. I just tested, e.g. 71 is short whistle 72 is long whistle (72 is the C above middle C). The drum clef is based on a bass clef as far as MIDI key numbers is concerned, so the bottom line of the staff is g (low tom 1).
