Come to think of it, I tried out the bs-1 and had similar problems. I just didn't remember it when it was mentioned again. I'm going to check with Rubber Chicken to see if they've included support for filter/mod data yet. I own Translator and think highly of it. They have verbally committed to full support of Soundfont translation to the EXS24 which, ideally, is where I'd like the samples to be anyway. -Jer > From: Kevin McNair <kevinmcnair@...> > Reply-To: exs-users@yahoogroups.com > Date: Thu, 03 Jan 2002 12:03:41 -0800 > To: <exs-users@yahoogroups.com> > Subject: [exs] Subject: [OT]Re: Great Quailty Soundfonts! > > Sascha, et al., > I took your advice and tried the Bismark bs-1.
