Sound font player needed!

So I downloaded this Megadrive Soundfont to emulate music like in the Sega Genesis. All I want to do is listen to existing MIDI files I have using this soundfont. I thought Winamp does such a thing, but apparently I'm wrong or can't figure it out. Anyone know of a program I can very easily just load the soundfont I want to use and then load the MIDI I want to hear?

Sidhe Priest posted XMPlay somewhere on here.
It's got pretty good soundfont support but it's a little hard to figure out.
Or you could try the demo of Midi2Wav recorder; the demo can't actually record but it can play with soundfonts.
And I have a bunch of others that I can't remember.

You can load a soundfont with SynthFont and play any midi using that soundfont. You can even mix and match different soundfonts for each instrument in the midi.
http://www.synthfont.com/
The free version should do what you're after and it also has the ability to record to WAV or other audio formats iirc.

another possible option is foo_midi for Foobar2000. It can use BassMIDI or FluidSynth for playing MIDI files, and both can be told to play using certain soundfonts.

Okay, I went with the Synthfont, and it works great! However, I loaded that Sega Genesis soundfont and sampled out some Descent tunes on it... SUCKS!!! I was disappointed. It'll be interesting to try out other soundfonts now, though. Thanks fellas!
