Hi, at the moment swami is the only tool running on linux natively that deals with manipulating SF2 files. My personal SF2 collection has grown over time and it is a pain to find out the best presets in each file (I mostly use GM collections of sounds). I have read about a lib that implements functions to work on SF2 files, but I have not found any doc about it. Where can I find the lib and doc for it? If there was a CLI tool that uses the lib then I think by using scripts handling the SF2 files could be easier. Something that does most if not all things that swami does, only that it is run via CLI and a command line. Looking at SF2 WAV samples I noticed that in most cases they are not normalized which results in the old problem of different presets having different volume throughout a SF2 file. This is where I would like something that does normalizing the sample(s) of the preset. I know that normalizing tools are out there, it's more a question of putting pieces together. The second problem which is even worse to deal with is looping sounds. I know that it is unlikely this could be done automagically, but an option in tools such as swami to find zero levels of a sample could already help. Maybe this is something for the next release of swami? Or maybe you have other suggestions on handling SF2 files? Kind regards, Crypto. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
