Re: [fluid-dev] How to recreate music originally composed using Logic X and Native Instruments Komplete patches?

[laalaa]

This is not quite fluidsynth related issue but MIDI sequencing issue.  There is 
no way to "convert" MIDI files optimized for one patch.  Depends on the 
characteristics of the optimized patch being used, the differences vary.

As a result, if you wish to use the MIDI "cross-platform", you may need to 
optimize it with more popular fonts (e.g. the classic SC-55 patches).  Which 
may not present the best side of your MIDI but most people can listen to that 
will little varies.
