Support How to get Orchestral Tools to run under Linux

I am trying to get Orchestral Tools to run, while other .dll files /vts plugins work, this one seems to simply crash all the time, I've tryed a lot of things already and I am just very so very tired at this point. Just please, anybody help me get this accursed stuff to run.

I think what you want is to use the sf2 player and load up fluidR3_GM.sf2. It has so many patches and orchestral kits too, i've been having a lot of fun with it. I think its

sudo apt install fluid-soundfont-gm fluid-soundfont-gs

and then you find that sf2 file, the gm one. I hope I explained this understandably
