Thanks Pablo! I'll try these out this afternoon! :)

It's not easy to find new sounds for the Linux softsynths. There are lots of free softsynths out there that require a host like Festige (for FST), but the open-source world needs more of these. Heck, if I could get a few people to collaborate with, I'd be willing to put up a website for people to share on. Open-source synths like Zyn and Yoshimi are great; but we need more. Definitely. And, if they're good enough, maybe more people would become curious to try Linux...

Thanks, AutoStatic. By now I owe you not a beer, but a keg! :D
