It's probably alphabetically more correct to state the match like this

Codex vs Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth vs Serum

IMO, Microsoft GS Wavetable synth is highly underrated... almost as good as OnePingOnly...

Yeah, but only almost. Nothing can touch OPO

You know...you are absolutely right. But my choice of order was very deliberate haha

I believe that the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth can be made to use a different, better sounding DLS file.

There is a setting in the Windows registry for specifying the DLS file to be used by the synth. The default setting is as follows:

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectMusic\GMFilePath="%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\GM.DLS"

You can download other DLS files such as the 25MB Fury DLS bank, or you can convert a SF2 to DLS with the proper utility.
