Hi everybody,
I'm planing to make a gamelan soundfont to use with linuxsampler. Nothing
really complicated: 1 sample per key, no sustain loops, some keys use 2
velocity layers.
I hesitate between GIG and SFZ format. Do they have different
possibilities, or are they just two ways to do the same things?
Also, what would be the workflow to create an SFZ file on linux?
Cheers to all,
Victor
Use SFZ. It is an open format, text based.
Also sfz is more modern and has more options.
Workflow, I don't know if there are sfz editors. But writing one should be much much
easier than handling the gig format.
You should ask RytmenPinne who did the Salamander Piano and the Salamander Drums, both in
sfz format.
If anything fails you can still write it by hand with a texteditor.
