Funny, I've used SynthFont before but I never noticed it could output to WAV.

Does using Play To File introduce line static due to use of soundcard channels? From what I've heard, Virtual Audio Cable, for example, avoids this problem by setting up its own digital channel, whereas recording directly from the sound stream generally will pick up some static. But if SynthFont is recording directly to the file maybe this won't happen.

The other thing is, I can do what I want with SynthFont but the awful default SYNTHGMS.SF2 sounds terrible. What free soundfont libraries are available, that cover all 128 General MIDI instruments? Where can I get them? I mean complete libraries, not scattered instruments.
