I have created a MIDI file using Anvil Studio in Windows. When playing the file with the MIDI editor Rosegarden in Linux (openSUSE Tumbleweed), the MIDI file sounds different.
Now, I know that MIDI files don't contain any music themselves and that it depends on the device which sound is played.
From what I have read so far it looks like Anvil Studio is using the Microsoft GS Wavetable Software Synthesizer and that this is what makes the MIDI file sound the way it does.
Is there a way to make the MIDI file sound the same in Linux? E.g. by specifying a soundfont or using a certain Software Synthesizer?
