Cool thanks for the info. Once the devel version of Swami is in general
working order I will start adding other formats to libInstPatch. I have
not given the Akai sample format a thorough look over yet, so I'm not
sure how well this could be munged into SoundFont units and parameters
for use with FluidSynth, though. Cheers.
