General Discussion / Re: Which banks to set ff7.sf2?

I am going to necro this topic, since i have found the solution to my problem.

Final Fantasy VII uses the AWE32 ROM samples for some instruments, so this is the correct setup:

bank 0 - 1mgm.sf2
bank 1 to 8 - ff7.sf2

Some tracks sound laughibly bad thanks to the ROM samples (Underneath the Rotting Pizza)

I am recently replaying Final Fantasy VII using EPSXE with an XBOX360 controller, so no problems here.

But seriously, this is how you necro a thread. It actually contributes something and may be helpful to others in the future.

I don't like FF7Music, because of all it's flaws (with delays and looping etc. )
The Sound Canvas midi's indeed give higher quality, but a lot of custom instruments will be gone, since FF7 doesn't only use Sound Canvas samples.

Now every song, as far as i can tell, sounds like the Playstation version. Except for Underneath the Rotting Pizza! The bassline is just..missing.

Hi all!

I'm enjoying the AWE midi's for FF7 as i'm posting this.
I'm playing them in XMplay with it's midi-plugin (Based on BassMidi, so it uses soundfonts) and i had set the soundfont that came with the game on bank 0 to 8, but the Victory Fanfare missed an instrument.

After setting ff7.sf2 on bank 1 to 9, it fixed the Fanfare, but Underneath the Rotting Pizza still misses an instrument.

Does any of you know which banks to set the soundfont on?

Thanks in advance
