SFZ Tutorial Part 2: Generators , transpose and ADSR

[@ruthlessadmin]

Very good tuts... This format needs WAY more attention! Only down side I can think of vs Kontakt is lack of scripting. What about a paid version of sforzando for like $50 w/ some Python bindings?

[@plgDavid]

We have a C++ sdk to create more complex processing around it, but yeah, not the same.

[@plgDavid]

Hi Most of the ARIA specific opcodes are listed on aria engine dot com However, the built in waveforms are not, however you only miss *silence ... which ... does what it says. Its usefull for voice stealing tricks...

[@hodshonf]

Can you load more than 1 sfz file at a time? For example, percussion files with specific key ranges.

[@plgDavid]

Afraid not, you would need to merge them or use a master sfz and use the C-like #include directive. Have a look at some of the free ARIA/sforzando banks for examples

i use Vienna Ensemble Pro 6 for this as a workaround = i can set up multiple channel instances if SFZ in VEPro6 feeding 1 channel in Studio One - looking into the SFZ Mapper and Designer as well. Thanks for the reply.

Im still waiting the part 3

[@plgDavid]

Ha! I think it would require redoing the lot with an actual plan :)

[@AlbertodeVictoria]

:( i understand it's a lot of work; i'm new in this stuff

[@cmd_f5]

This makes me open Sforzando again haha. Have always used other sf but not made my own yet.

[@plgDavid]

This video is nearly 10 years old. SFZ needs better tuts.

For some reason Aria is not recognizing the text I typed in. I used you exact text: sample=*sine and nothing happened. What am I doing wrong? I get the error : No sound asset loaded #1 Unknown opcode

[@plgDavid]

Did you save your file as a word/ RTF? It needs to be plain text. Cheers

[@justmusicvid]

I saved it as a .sfz file. The previous example with the accompanying sample file worked but the .sfz to just generate a sine wave never worked.

[@plgDavid]

Hi could you send us the file itself for analysis?

[@talito777]

con poliphone te quitas todo ese trabajo.

[@aarongrooves]

Is there any documentation that lists the different built-in waveform types? In this example, you used *sine, and I found that *square, *triangle, *saw, and *noise also work. But is there a list somewhere?

[@archive3824]

Thank you!

[@DanielSamulewiczXXI]

Great tutorial! Very concise and clear. were there more parts? Can’t find on your chanel.

[@plgDavid]

Sadly no. I wish there were more and better tutorials out there
