  8. A weakness of the SFZ sampler format is that for normal humans, it is difficult to write the code required to do more than basic key mapping. Most SFZ files don’t include midi CC & modulation capabilities, because these are defined in the code

    Solution: Use a synth or sampler plugin that doesn’t rely on SFZ for these things:

    * TX16Wx
    * TAL-Sampler
    * Altitude
    * Bliss
    * Serum 2
    * Falcon
    * ….etc

  10. Soundfonts & SFZ

    5. The samplers of today are nothing like the samplers of years before. Largely, gone are the days of hardware samplers that can play chromatically & polyphonically using real multisamples that include seamless loop points, & cross fading. Samplers that can still do that are almost exclusively found in software plugins. I’ve found only a couple of exceptions.

    Sf2 & SFZ are excellent choices!

  12. Soundfonts & SFZ

    3. Both formats support the ability to be modulated through Midi CC — in real time & through automation. If built into the patch, they can be far more expressive than simple midi keynote on/off.

    4. Unlike encrypted formats, the samples themselves are accessible in both formats. Yes, Sf2 is monolithic, but Polyphone, ConvertWithMoss, and others can easily pull them out.

  14. I often see posts by people who look down upon Soundfonts and SFZ. Here’s some food for thought for these legendary underdogs:

    1. Both Soundfonts (sf2) and SFZ are open formats with many open (as well as commercial) tools and plugins. As old as they both are, they are not going extinct.

    2. Both support high quality. Sf2 supports up to 24 bit 48khz, and SFZ supports everything.

  16. With this template, SFZ is as expressive as any other format. It has all the features needed for future-proofing one's sample instrument library. And one need not lose their sample collections the next time a sampler company goes out of business, kills their product, or encrypts their libraries.

  18. what I found out is that if instead of trying to use the instrument from Carla, I add as a plug-in, and load the instrument there, it works... as long as Carla is started from LLMS as a plug-in, and is not started directly.

  20. I think I got an A-B problem on my hands 😂

    I plan to make music for my next YouTube stuff, so I was looking for electronic guitar samples for @LMMS , and a forum suggested to get Unreal Instruments Metal GTX, and to find something that can load an instrument. I found that Arch has in the repos. So now I have Carla in and the instrument opened in Carla but have no sound...

    Do I troubleshoot the sound, or look for a different instrument?
