Yanli,

Unless you want 2 or more simultaneous drum channels (as in GM2, or XG midi 
files), you don't really need this patch.  Even then I only made sure it still 
works with existing GM-midi files.  I haven't done any real tests regarding GM2 
(I haven't found one out there), or XG midi files yet.

If you want to override the current drumkit in the default soundfont (SF2), you 
can specify both soundfont files.  I believe the second soundfont will override 
any soundbank/drumkit in the first soundfont.
