I'm trying to find the standard SoundFont used in WindowsXP's MIDI Wavetable Synthesizer.

I don't know if I get this right, but there seems to be a set of Roland Sound Canvas samples used in XP's wavetable synthesizer. I looked for a SoundFont based on these samples, but either there is none in my Windows installation, or the MIDI playback works in a different way.

Anyone has an idea where to look for it?
