They have made extensive updates to the brass sounds making them sound more realistic than ever.Īria also allows you to put in a midi file to the actual program and assign the instruments to each line and play back within aria itself, making it quite useful for recording purposes. Version 4 was the start of the aria player and in my experience the most stable and responsive of the products so far, again still can be used as a standalone with virtual cables, if anyone is still interested i would be happy to set it up on my own setup and give a step by step account of what i have done. This heralded the loss of garritan studio, for reasons best known to themselves, and prompted the need for virtual cables such as midi ox. Quote from: genomeman - 12:36 pm The version noted by rick is actually version 2 of GPO, version 3 updated the kontact player to kp 2.

I can't use working ones because I have to upgrade
It might be a lot to download, but it's free and well worth it!ĮDIT: Sorry, you'll have to copy-paste the links. part 2-4 is the same thing, but is harder to extract for some reason. If you want to check it out, go (/freeware6.htm#titanic) here, halfway down the page. BTW, the Titanic soundfont is pretty good. Or, you can use timidity++, but it's 'very' old. Configure qSynth to load the soundfont you have and make it get input from 'midi yoke 1' (something like that, or any other value for that matter), and configure NWC to give output to the same 'yoke'.
In order to play soundfonts, use () qSynth along with () midi yoke.
