    Hello there, I've been putting off working on this for a long time because of silly things - doesn't matter why - but I really wanted to make a drum kit soundfont with the sample pack I bought a couple years ago from NateWantsToBattle. Anyway, I've gotten the samples loaded, added into the instrument, properly set their root keys, but no matter WHAT I've tried from things I looked up, they play all as one sound no matter what specific drum note is selected in MuseScore! I have a drum thing that's worked fine with a previous soundfont and this one it's just one super loud noise that definitely has multiple, if not all, the sounds playing at once. I'm including my Polyphone screenshot here so you can see the instrument itself (I had the global key range from 0-127 but have tested the actual range of keys that I'm using but to no avail). The virtual keyboard also doesn't play the sounds I've assigned, and I'm genuinely not sure what I'm doing wrong, so help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    in the Key Range line assign the specific key you want to hear the sound of the samples. (now it says for every sample 0-127)
