problem with midis and SLADE3

[Gothic]

every time I try to open a MUS or MIDI file with SLADE3, this happens

---

How I can fix this?

The problem is that no [wiki]soundfont[/wiki] is currently set up for playing MIDIs. The solution is to see the audio settings in Editor -> Preferences.

Xaser recommanded me to install WeedsGM3, and i think you should do the same thing.
Seriously, it's awesome.

WeedsGM3

YESSSSSSSSS. Aside from tiny quirks, it's my favorite. Although I'm still partial to Yamaha SYXG for general MIDI-ing, but I've never found a soundfont anywhere close to it.

play MIDIS as they should really sound

Oh man, hornet's nest of ambiguity! The closest to how a MIDI is "meant to sound" would be the hardware it was composed on. Personally I test something that will be a MIDI on all 3 of my different devices to mkke sure it'll sound passable on all. (As much as I hate to listen to the MS Synth, it's the most universal. )

Speaking of, why can't you still play MIDIs in SLADE without one? Used to be able to use your system's sounds for 'em.

Because that was a feature of Audiere, which is no longer used, and not of FluidSynth, which is. Look back a page or two for the exact reasons.

Is the Roland better than WeedsGM3? When I play DOS games, the Roland sounds better than Soundblaster. WeedsGM3 is more megabytes though.

[NeuralStunner]

It depends on wat you mean by "better". If what you want is more authentic sound, Weeds. If you want something small and "classic" sounding, use Roland.

I want optimal performance so I go for Weeds.

There's no such thing as 'optimal performance' with soundfonts. Maybe outside of loading the soundfont for the first time. Which shouldn't be a problem for today's standard 7200 RPM HDD's.

Another good soundfont if one doesn't like Weeds is FluidR3_GM.

How do I install the soundfonts to zdoom? We should have some soundfont themes, lol.

Read. The. Fooking. Manual.

If that doesn't strike your fancy, there's this. But I wouldn't recommend it, it's buggy.
