Actually I'm going to be using a midi "rendering" tool that uses *huge*
live instrument sample files to render a wav file from the MIDI to give
"live-performance" quality.  It's not a real-time synth, but an "off-line"
renderer.  But the quality is much better than any sound card, and
noticably better than any of my hardware synths.
