Out of curiosity, any particular soundfonts that you guys would recommend, either for standard audio quality or the more quirky ones like that one that makes everything sound like a Genesis is playing it?
Chorium RevA is a pretty standard option. I don't use it much anymore but it'll get the job done if you're not looking for anything of especially-high quality.
SGM-V2.01 is a large one with good quality. Be aware, though, that by large I mean "above 200 megabytes".
OmegaGMGS2 is another large one and is what I currently use, but it's an even bigger file than SGM-V2.01.
OPL-3 FM 128M is great if you want some old sounds, like Sound Blaster 16 old. It's somewhat large, but not to the same degree as the above two.
By the way, what would you guys think about if a quest was packaged alongside a specific soundfont with directions on how to set it up, as a way to ensure that the person playing the game hears the audio exactly how the author intended?
Soundfonts themselves vary considerably in size and some can get to be rather large (two of the ones I linked to in my recommendations are more than 200 MB each), so personally I'd recommend against including them in packages. If you really want your quest MIDIs to sound a specific way, I'd suggest providing instructions on where to obtain the soundfont in question and how to set it up, sort of like how quest MP3s have been handled thus far.
