The ghost notes in the MuseSounds drum kit stave mapped to a different pitch? They will not play if that is the case. Needs to be 38 with a parenthesis.

This issue appears to be specific to the Touhou Soundfont. Unfortunately, we don't currently plan to address it.
The issue is, that the ghost notes from Muse Sounds are barely hearable. The Touhou font is only here for a comparison as it represents the soundfont alternative. (Edit: the mapping also doesn't play a role)
Can you provide the score? In the video I shared, I think the ghost notes are appropriately audible
The problem is, that while it is barely audible, when you hear to the drum kit in isolation, it becomes completely inaudible, once you mix in other instruments. When it should be barely audible, when other instruments are mixed in. In other words: while the current loudness is more realistic (for the quietest possible played ghost notes). It becomes too quiet for a full band mix. It even gets nearly lost in a full drum mix.
Thank you, I see what you mean, I'm convinced we can bump them up a bit, but not by much.
