libinstpatch is the library Josh created for manipulating sf2 and other formats. This is what Swami uses. There is a python binding for it. There should be some examples of using lib inst patch in the swami mailing list archives and there is a wiki here: http://swami.resonance.org/trac/wiki/libInstPatch Crypto wrote: > 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.
