I have a pair of lovely MTX Thunderpro 12" Sub PA speakers. One of the tweeters apparently went out and I can't find replacement cones online anywhere. Are they the rebuildable kind or am I hosed?

What instrument is this anyway, when the word "Television" fades in? I've tried googling it but came up short.

Sounds like a waterphone played with a bow.

Okay someone in the stupid questions thread (I asked there first before being directed here because I have the dumb) correctly identified it as a bowed cymbal, so you were close! I knew it wasn't a waterphone, it was too harsh, but the bowed cymbal is 100% the sound.

I got a stupid question regarding MIDI, I've noticed some MIDI tracks have percussion parts that go from note F7 to note C8 (between notes 89 and 96 respectively) that not a single one of my soundfonts has any samples for, as well as a lack of samples for G#1 and A1 (Notes 20 and 21 that I have never seen be used. I have soundfonts that cover the rest of those notes in percussion just fine, so for the majority of songs I have imported into FL Studio I don't have a problem selecting a soundfont that works with them, but for these tracks in particular (Darkseed 2's midis are a perfect example of what I mean) I have no idea what instruments are supposed to correspond to these notes. Obviously they have to go to something, but there isn't a single documented instrumentation standard I can find that includes these notes at all. What am I missing here? Does anyone know what these notes correspond to?

Example shown below, the highlighted notes I have no idea what they are.

Notes don't have to map to particular drums, it's just a convention. Maybe they had some weird sample of, like, a rubber mallet hitting a package of uncooked spaghetti in a 20 gallon copper kettle, and figured G#1 was as good as anything else.

...well this midi is from Darkseed 2 so like... it'd be a package of cooked spaghetti, but your point is still valid.
