Ive been playing with this more, corrected some errors in the initial article, as well as more information on why some soundfonts fail.

Also i linked to this rad analog pack

Btw you can use this tool to convert tons of stuff into sf2 format, or even rip wav samples from the soundfont itself:

i dont have a chance to look, but did you set the keyb range for each sample to be assigned to each key only?

here is a good tutorial:

I'll go thru this tut and see what steps I missed.

Hey Prof:  I've been trying to make a soundfont from the speech phonems from lsdj using vienna and am not having any luck.  Would you happen to know if somebody's already done this or know of some other (maybe a variety) of "speech synth" soundfonts?

Btw after doing some testting it seems that if you use a soundfont that fills the piggy sample slots, you cannnot import any more sample instruments. The workaround is to edit the soundfont or use one with less instruments.

Theres already some resposes to check.  smile


Good work! Was about to do the same...

I'm sure XRNI is at the top of no-one's wishlist, but it would tally very nicely with how I'm using Piggy these days - as both a sketchpad and live tool for projects I either start in LGPT and finish in Renoise, or vice versa smile

I've loaded some 'treated' samples from Renoise into Piggy; you have to translate the loop start and end points from hex or something into whatever Piggy needs which is fiddly, but it works fine. However, it would be a *lot* quicker if Piggy could just read the XRNI metadata wink

Is there a wiki on this file format? Ill create a feature request.

It's not a NES or SNES soundfont, but a gxscc:

Is that a zip with just the gxscc soundfont? Where are you loading it, perhaps its a memory issue.

If anyone cares to share a font that doesnt work we can file a bug report around it, the same for the not being able to add samples after save thing.
