eawpats is a sound patches library for TiMidity++. This package contains
a patchset for the TiMidity++ MIDI player. A patchset is required for
MIDI files to be audible through TiMidity++. These patches also work
with applications that use SDL_mixer for MIDI audio.
Note that eawpats contains proprietary sound samples. According to the
ALSA Wiki:
"Half of the patches in eawpats are derived from original Gravis patches,
and therefore may have some intellectual property issues."
If this is a concern to you, use freepats instead (however, eawpats does
sound nicer). For more information, see /usr/doc/eawpats-12/copyrigh.txt
To use eawpats with TiMidity++ and/or SDL_mixer, edit /etc/timidity.cfg
and make it look like this:
source /etc/timidity/eawpats.cfg
