DESCRIPTION: SFloop loads a Soundfont but does not use any of the transformations and modulations as is embedded in Soundfonts, like looping points, reverb or chorus. You have to set your own looping points here- allowing for new 'sounds' on the existing and well-known samples like piano, banjo, guitar etc. where p4 = frequency or Midi Pitch, p5 = amplitude. For more info: https://github.com/kunstmusik/blue/wiki/Fond-of-Soundfont Reason for this instrument is to have easy acces to those well-known acoustical musical instruments but with different, changeable loop points and interesting transformation options. It makes the well-known and mostly harmonic sounds "only" basic material to start from. Note: Big SoundFonts (> 100MB)take a while to load and play. note example: i2 0 0.8 60 1.0 ; P4 = midi value, P5 = amplitude i2 0 0.2 261.625565 1.0 ; P4 = frequency, P5 = amplitude CONTROLLERS: see the help balloon when hovering over the controllers in the instrument. Help can be turned off by pressing the 'I' button next to the play bar. --- version 3.2, December 2020 - added color option, for accessing a sample on a different key version 3.1, November 2020 - added tremolo envelope version 2.1, October 2020 - againbig overhaul: new filters - filters have amplitude or frequency/pitch followers (exponentially) - checkbox for P4 = frequency or MidiPitch - 2 types of filter envelopes, can be mixed version 2.0, July 2020 - big changes: new vibrato, new dynamics, version 1, September 2019 - built with XlooperSolo as a template

DESCRIPTION: SFplayer, based on the splay3 opcode, loads a Soundfont and plays the presets of a SoundFont. It does not use any of the transformations like internal modulations, reverb or chorus as embedde in the preset of the SoundFont, but does however respect the start and end loop points of the Soundfonts' preset. SFplayer is suited for use in microtonal compositions; for instance, the PianoRoll Object can contain an arbitrary tone scale, SFplayer will follow the notes nicely when microtuned. SFplayer can take midi note numbers as entries for p4, but also frequencies. A PianoRoll for example, must be set to Pch Generation --> MIDI or Pch Generation --> Frequency. P5 should be set to values 0 - 1. Reason for this instrument is my wish to have easy acces to (acoustic) musical instruments but with different and interesting transformation options and microtonality. This makes the well-known and mostly harmonic sounds a basic material, to start molding new sounds with an already acoustical property. Note: Big SoundFonts (> 100MB)take a while to load and play. note example: i2 0 0.8 60 1.0 ; P4 = midi value, P5 = amplitude i2 0 0.2 261.625565 1.0 ; P4 = frequency, P5 = amplitude CONTROLLERS: see the help balloon when hovering over the controllers in the instrument. Help can be turned off by pressing the 'I' button next to the play bar. --- version 3.1, December 2020 - added color option, for accessing a sample on a different key - added tremolo envelope version 3.0, October 2020 - big overhaul: new filters - filters have amplitude or frequency/pitch followers (exponentially) - switch for P4 = frequency or MidiPitch - 2 types of filter envelopes, can be mixed - optional Score Module version 2.0, July 2020 - big changes in: dynamics, vibrato, version 1.1, August 2019 - added Show Midi Key, so you know what keys are hit and adjust the range of the preset accordingly - added Depth slider for filters version 1, August 2019 - first version- that's why i call it version 1

DESCRIPTION: SFinst, based on the sfinstr3 opcode, loads the instruments of a Soundfont. So it does NOT use the Presets of the Soundfont, but the instruments the Presets are made of. SFinst is suited for use in microtonal compositions; for instance, the PianoRoll Object can contain an arbitrary tone scale, SFinst will follow the notes nicely when microtuned. SFinst can use midi note numbers as entries for p4, but also frequencies. Set the parameter 'scoreP4' accordingly. A PianoRoll for example, must be set to Pch Generation --> Frequency (and not the Midi note pitch), while a PianoRoll using the familiar 12TET set Pch Generation --> MIDI. Or use the AL. Velocity (= p5) is from 0 - 1, but scaled to 0-127 according to the SF expectency. It then follows the normal Soundfont/midi protocol. Reason for this instrument is to have easy acces to those well-known acoustical musical instruments but with different and interesting transformation options and microtonality. That makes the well-known and mostly harmonic sounds "only" basic material to start molding new sounds with an already acoustal property. ATTENTION: SoundFont Presets can be made of stereo samples. According to SF Protocol, these samples are divided over 2 mono Instruments, each with its own number. This means that if you select an Instrument, you load only the Left channel or the Right channel if it is part of a stereo sample. There is a checkbox that makes the mono sound a pseudostereo sound by panning the notes freely over the stereo image. note example: i2 0 0.8 60 1.0 ; P4 = midi value, P5 = amplitude i2 0 0.2 261.625565 1.0 ; P4 = frequency, P5 = amplitude CONTROLLERS: see the help balloon when hovering over the controllers in the instrument. Help can be turned off by pressing the 'I' button next to the play bar. --- version 3.2, December 2020 - added color option, for accessing a sample on a different key - changed from mono reading to stereo reading of SF version 3.1, November 2020 - added tremolo envelope version 3.0, October 2020 - big overhaul: new filters - filters have amplitude or frequency/pitch followers (exponentially) - switch for P4 = frequency or MidiPitch - 2 types of filter envelopes, can be mixed - optional Score Module version 2.0, July 2020 - big changes in: dynamics, vibrato, version 1.1, August 2019 - added Show Midi Key, so you know what keys are hit and adjust the range of the preset accordingly - added Depth slider for filters version 1, August 2019 - first version- that's why i call it version 1

SFluidly is a wrapper for Fluidsynth: http://www.fluidsynth.org/ Soundfonts have some modulators embedded. They were put there at creation. Modulations depends on if and how much of these embedded modulators are present. All modulators are global. This means that they effect all the notes playing at that point in time.
