Hmm . . . If you want to use the original Soundfont with an SBlive, the ROM samples apparently work with the SBLive. Vienna or (I'm asumming) any other SoundFont editor will report that the ROM samples are incompatible with your soundcard, but if you load the SoundFont, the instruments that use the ROM samples will play. (I noticed this one day when I loaded the 512K SF and saw that it took up about 1.47 or so MEGS in the SF cache . . . So I played "Still More Fighting" . . . and low and behold, I heard that terrible AWE64 Distortion Guitar. Apparently, the SBLive card has a ROM chip that contains the samples which are loaded into memory when needed for backwards compatibility.)
