The soundfont offset is relevant when more than one soundfont is loaded 
within the same engine (fluidsynth instance). But Lorenzo's use case is 
about loading different soundfonts in different engines/instances, so no 
need to set offsets in this case.

The channel presets are stored in the program configuration, ( which in 
Linux is located at ~/.config/rncbc.org/Qsynth.conf ). Each preset is 
associated to its engine, so I see no problems with Lorenzo's scenario.
