Is it just me or does the documentation with these utilities really suck I must be stupid because I cant get a single soundfont createdsaved.

I was hoping to just drop a.wav sample from my HDD in and save as a soundfont.

And is there one SF Editor that is simple to use Does Live Synth Pro CREATE soundfonts or just PLAY them Thanx for the vent.

Bill.

After dayz of confusing, and finnally I got it work, but hey.

Im a music programer, and do sometimes make my own sound by programing my hardware synth.

But I found programing sound in SoundFont world aint quite same with real synth.

After all is said and done, I lost my focus on creating music.

YESS, Im a musician, not a sound analyst that much.

Viena Soundfont Editor Download A Better

So. why bother creating sound if we can download a better Soundfont files for free.

Seriously, you are correct that the Vienna docs are terrible, but it is not difficult at all.

I wrote a tutorial that outlines the steps to create a SoundFont from scratch.

If any are for sustaining instrument samples you also need to loop them.

You can set loop points in Vienna, but its nowhere near as convenient as in a real audio editor like SoundForge.

Import the Wave files into Vienna.

Create a new Instrument in Vienna and tell it which Wave files to use.

Create a Preset and tell it to use the Instrument you just defined.

So as you can see, SoundFonts are built in three layers: Presets are built from Instruments that are built from Wave files.

Viena Soundfont Editor How To Make Your

This is the key to understanding how to make your own.

Ethan.

My audio card is a Terratec EWX 2496, which has no on-board sound chip.

Seriously, this is not because Creative doesnt want you to use Vienna with other brands of sound cards.

Rather, Vienna uses the SB card to play the sounds as you edit and audition them.

It alows sound files (like.wav) to be tranformed and manipulated so can be used as synth to be triggered by MIDI on tyhe fly.

Most of Creatives and a few card using this EMU chip can adapt this technology as well.

I had fired up Vienna when I had an AWE64 Gold installed in my PC, but I could never figure out exactly what to do when it came to editing SFs.

I use soft synths to produce the noises for my MIDI files, I know there are some soundfont editors out there that will work with non-SB audio cards.

But to be honest, I think Id rather DL someone elses SF2 who (presumably) knows what they are doing.
