Re: sfizz
My main problems with LinuxSampler were the difficulty of configuration as already described, and it didn't fully support some sfz opcodes that I wanted to use. Specifically, the dynamic cross-fade feature of Virtual Playing Orchestra didn't work.
At one point I was thinking about making a nicer plugin based on LinuxSampler, but the whole "this is GPL oh yeah actually it's not GPL" thing was kind of weird, I wasn't sure if I could use a GPL framework and a not-quite-GPL library together.

What's the status of this feature in Sfizz, has the smoothing issue been solved?Michael Willis wrote:Specifically, the dynamic cross-fade feature of Virtual Playing Orchestra didn't work.

Re: sfizz
I don't think that there has been any change since the last time you talked to the developers about it, but it was already good enough for me. Hit them up on their Discord channel again, maybe there is still some improvement still to be made.d.healey wrote:What's the status of this feature in Sfizz, has the smoothing issue been solved?Michael Willis wrote:Specifically, the dynamic cross-fade feature of Virtual Playing Orchestra didn't work.

Re: sfizz
Can you share some audio examples? I really haven't been able to create anything that sounds usable, but since I'm the only one complaining about it I think it's something I'm doing.Michael Willis wrote: but it was already good enough for me..

Re: sfizz
I am too stupid to build a working lv2.
Since I found no build instructions I used:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz.git
cd sfizz/src
ccmake .. (got some errors=
cmake .
make
I got an lv2 but it caused an endless loop in Carla when loading it.

Also, there are release binaries here:

Re: sfizz
Hi Guys
I would like to use sfizz with Tracktion Waveform 11 under Linux.
But Waveform does not support lv2.
I don't know if vst3 is supposed to be working with Waveform, but the sfizz vst3 does not load.
Can sfizz be compiled as vst2?
What other options do is have?
Thank you very much

Re: sfizz
Hi,
Waveform11 has build-in sampler that supports SFZ format. And yes, it doesn't support lv2 and vst3 (yet).
I'll take a look, maybe sfizz can be wrapped with https://github.com/x42/lv2vst
EDIT: No, it can't be wrapped

Re: sfizz
You could use dpf and vestige.h and there shouldn't be any licensing issues with steinberg to worry about.

Re: sfizz
Sorry for the bump but I recently stumbled upon this project and I realized how much potential it has. I mean, outside of LinuxSampler (which for the licensing-related reasons mentioned by @Michael Willis is avoided by many users) there are no fully standard-compliant SFZ players and I know many users here who use Sforzando, a proprietary freeware Windows program.
@paulfd I don't know if you consider this a hobby project or not but I think it's really important for the FLOSS community and as such, I think raising some funds for its development wouldn't be a bad idea. I know this in practice almost never works but working with a non-profit like the SFConservancy might bring some results.
