Do I need a separate instance loaded into each track or is there a way to have multiple sounds loaded into one instance and output to a specific MIDI channel?
I’m doing this to make kk slider songs 😹

When I load the SGM 2.01 soundfont,all the pianos are not playing,the rhodes plays some notes,it's not till I get further down the patches that patches work correctly.
hi, is there a way to enlist our soundfont in the instruments option in the drop-down ? please help
thk u for your tutorial... like it
Question: Where did you find that violin soundfont, the one that says "Strings - 1st violin"
I've been experimenting with a font for expressive string. It all works in Ableton, but the font has all Sustain, Staccato, Tremolo, and Pizzicato. I can switch between them and if I record with a midi file in the stand alone program of Sforzando the changes record in. However while in ableton if I try to record changes anything I switch to is not saved. I could use the stand alone program and export sound files and put them into ableton after recording where the strings switch between the different techniques, but that would take up more time. Do you have any idea on how to get past this? Either way that stand alone feature will come in handy for other things.
Wonderfull!
Thank you :) I subbed
what do i do if it just gives me the default set of sounds instead of the ones i imported?
How can I manipulate the right pedal key at the bottom right automatically.. with like automation clip or else
Ok I know this is old but every SF that I add sounds the same no matter the instrument. One particular SF I've used before but was having trouble using it in FL because it is a 32 bit SF and I'm on a 64 bit but I know it has great sounds but the sounds coming out of this sforzano are horrible. Is there a setting I need to put it on to make the sounds sound like the actual sound it's supposed to be? I was really hoping this was going to be my SoundFont Savior... Thanks
Hi Sound Pixel! Thanks for the tutorial. I've gotten as far as this tutorial has shown, and I can make sounds IN the sforzando plugin editor, but when I try and open the piano roll for this channel, I don't get any sounds. What's the next step to using sforzando to actually writing music in FL Studio? Thanks for the help!!

why do some some soundfonts sound fine and some make crackling or clicking noises?
hi , from where we can get all those cool soundfonts
sir did you have link for the orchestra bank sound?
loaded three different pianos but the notes sound short and cut off and just play a quick sound with no decay
For anyone looking to find some badass soundfonts...I recently updated my channel's description to include all the links and sources to the sounds I've used over the years. As for best soundfont player. So far I'm gonna have to side with the DSK SF2 V2 player from DSK free VST's. It allows for a lot of control over the sounds...Which i also have a link to on my channel.

I can't get it to recognize MIDI from my keyboard but it works when pressing the key with mouse. Edit: In Pro Tools at least, I had to make at least 1 midi track pointing to an instrument track with sforzando, then it worked. I don't know if that switched something within the plugin or what, but after that all the midi on all instances of the plugin worked.
Not exactly a decent demonstration of this plugin. It didn't even cover the controls and settings.

Would be nice if it had a folder where you could add many sf2 files so you can quickly select different instruments like a Kontakt plugin.

Many other Daws like Studio One, Bitwig, Ableton Live allow you to select sf2 patches (or instruments as you call them) directly from the browser. Also I'd really recommend FL Studio's soundfont player rather than Sforzando because you will lose note pan and gliding by switching over. I also hate Sforzando for sf2 files because it converts all your soundfonts to a proprietary file type that called .sfz and stores that somewhere else on your computer, using double the storage. Navigating soundfonts with a large number of patches in Sforzando would always make me want to tear my hair out it makes you scroll though these slim popup menus and you can't even audition any patches before selecting one and if you then decide you want to use a different patch you have to open all the menus again. If for some reason you really don't want to use FL's soundfont player you should use Juicysfplugin instead of Sforzando it's a million times better.
