Some soundfonts arent working

[RosaTheRad]

Hello, I recently downloaded LMMS and also a bunch of free .Sf2 and SfPack/SfArk (which I converted to Sf2) files to use. I noticed that only some of the soundfonts played sounds when I clicked on them. Putting them into my Song-Editor and opening the soundfont plugin GUI revealed that the ones that didn't play had no file directory?

how do I fix this?

if that gets removed again, here's a download to the examples in the screenshot. The steel drum is the one that works.

(Both soundfonts in this folder were free downloads.)

No. It's a mix of converted and non-converted.

Some soundfonts don't have a patch in the first position and you'll have to scroll a bit to find it. We'll improve that in the future so you won't have to search manually for the first non-empty patch but for now you do. It that's the issue that is.

Thank you! Scrolling to find the patch worked!
