Fluidsynth's tuning strategy is, arguably, a little less robust than some: it
only tweaks the sample assigned to a given note; it doesn't reassign samples,
regardless of the extent of the retuning.
I haven't looked at the file you attached (I'm stuck using my phone for
everything at the moment), but my recollection is that those made use of really
low notes (with no samples in the first place) retuned by octaves.
