If swami is really able to make use of fluidsynth without the need for any
external sound banks, then this would seem to be a cut-and-dried case. Can
you please step me through how I would do that? I can't see anywhere that
swami lets me create sound fonts from scratch, and I don't see any
documentation within the app about what format a sample needs to be in for
me to import it?
Thanks,
