Making the Most out of the MIDI Music Option in SRB2/Installing an SF2 (Tutorial)

[LegoLoco7]

Hey! If you're like me and love the default native MIDI synthesizer that Windows has/had to offer and wished it wasn't lower quality audio on Windows 10, you've come to the right thread! Here, take a seat. :P

This will work with any version of SRB2.

To start, we have a Sound Font (SF2) recreation of the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth : Link

(or another SF2)

After downloading that, Copy/Paste it into the folder that you installed SRB2 in.

Then open up SRB2, open the menu, go to Options, Sound Options, turn MIDI music ON (if it isn't already), change the Music Preference to MIDI, go to Advanced Options..., change the MIDI Player to FluidSynth, then go to the FluidSynth Sound Font File box and type

gm.sf2

(or the filename of the SF2 you chose)
