[Rosegarden-user] Sound with softsynth but nothing from the soundcard

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi all,

I'm using Rosegarden for a few months now, great software! Thank's!

I'm using RH 8.0 with the latest packages from the planet. Alsa drivers
and Jack working perfectly.

Here are my Rosegarden problems, that I now decided to solve.

I never heard a sound out of my sound device (SBLive) thru Rosegarden.
If I load a soundfont with Timidity or Iiwusynth, no problems, the sound
is there. But with those soundfonts, when I export my composition to a
midifile, the sound I hear is the first instrument of the General
Midi.???

I have nothing like a file call 8mbgmsfx.sf2 on my machine, so I can't
load it with sfxload.

Here is the output of Jack :

Thank's for looking guy's,

Eric,

PS : Here is my little site where you can dowload music I created with
my Linux Box and Rosegarden :
