Hi Chris,
In the infamous SGM soundfont, the standard kit has instruments called "GS Bass Drums" and GS Snares". They span the outer range of the MIDI keyboard (bass is 0-16, snares is 97-127). I've seen some MIDIs use these snares instead of the regular GM ones, which result in no snares at all in most soundfonts (including Generaluser GS).
So, I wonder if GeneralUserGS can add support for these. I don't mean new samples, just map the existing standard, room, power, electric, analog, orchestra etc. snares and kicks to their respective positons like in SGM.
I've attached a zip file containing the SGM drums with the said special drums and a MIDI file that uses the special snares.

What do you think?
