Hi!
Could someone confirm that in the attached midi (theme.mid) file between 1:41 and 1:56 Tubular bells (channels 14 and 15) are almost inaudible (in any mode, btw), even though it shows them as playing at a high level? I was playing with SCVA yesterday and noticed this strange behaviour. I never had the real SC hardware, so I don't know how it should sound on it, but I know this composition quite well (from the game), played it on different hardware back in the day and lately different soundfonts and I'm fairly certain that these tubular bells were meant to be heard. It's a minor detail, of course, I just want to confirm that it's not just my setup and me doing something wrong. Also, if anyone who has any model of the real Sound Canvas (or better yet several different models, 🤣) could also check it for comparison.
BTW this rip from the game has some errors, sadly I couldn't find any better to demonstrate the issue, but I have Ultima 8 installed and it behaves exactly the same way at this moment (tubular bells inaudible). Thanks.
Edit: I found a better example (without errors) that demonstrates the issue. Endgame.mid - look at channels 14 and 15 between 1:47 and 2:03. Again tubular bells are inaudible even though it shows that it's playing them at a high level.
