I don't recall where I got these. Best to do a google search (I just entered
SGM-V2.01.sf2 into google and a wack of results ... the file is about
100meg, compressed. ... anyone know of a better, free, font please let me
know!) As I recall, I had to get the file in chunks and then merge it ...
but it's been several years. It does sound pretty decent to me. To use just
make the following changes to the /etc/timidity/timidity.cfg file.
#source /etc/timidity/freepats.cfg
soundfont /home/bob/sounds/sfx-lib/SGM-V2.01.sf2 #where you file is stored!
But it's funny ... I can't get it to work at all tonight. But, it's not that
worthwhile to try either.
I use timidity to play my MMA generated background tracks when I'm using my
laptop as a device on small/solo gigs I do with my sax. With the SGM font
package the sounds are quite decent.
