Hi Eric,
Attached is a MIDI file of some Medieval music by Machaut that has audible clicks when used with the Personal Copy GM soundfont (using the recorder patch, program 75 in 1-based counting, or 74 in 0-based counting scheme)... I trust you can track down, or already may have the Personal Copy GM soundfont, but in case you can't here's a link to it that I've uploaded to my site: http://www.akjmusic.com/PC51d.sf2 (58mb download!!) Hope this can help Timidity developers track down the click problem! :) Best, AKJ http://www.akjmusic.com http://www.untwelve.org http://www.nabble.com/file/p25177354/machaut-b15-gm.mid machaut-b15-gm.mid Eric Welsh wrote: > > On Thu, 27 Aug 2009, Aaron Krister Johnson wrote: > >> I couldn't find the files either...it looks like a file-sharing site >> whose >> links have expired...anyway, are you a developer for Timidity?
