Re midifiles not sounding as good as the AWE toys.....

given that u had just booted it up on your machine... i would be willing
to bet that the card's midi stuff is mapped into some default sounds other
then the AWE stuff

	you probably have to create patch files and map them yourself.

	This is not surprising given the vagaries of sound hardware and
software. I often think of replacing my .sig with : if something isn't
working, remove the sound card and try it again
