Hi folks!,
I'm currently using Linuxsampler for my GIG stuff and I'm wondering if I
should port my samples to SFZ.
This is a very time consuming thing, where Natural Drum Kit (2+G +) is
the most important one. It's very complicated to make a drum kit work as
it should, the hi hats has for example varied degrees of openness, not
only notes and the sample players handle this with the idea of
dimensions. The openness is usually handles by an expression pedal or
modulation wheel when an Hi Hat pedal is not involved.
Speaking about Hi Hat: One SFZ thing Linuxsampler does not handle (at
the moment) is closing the previous samples when you trigger new ones
when you varies the openness of it (in other word: it don't do it when
you're keeping the same note), that mean that you can't play the sample
library as a drummer would. The Linuxsampler devs took away this
functionality early this year from the SVN repo. The (really bad)
solution for now is to make a separate sample library for HHs and spread
the varied openness items to different notes, then every trigging of a
note can mute the previous sample.
Natural Drum Kit is not the only library that have varied HH openness, I
know that ANALOGUE DRUMS also does and i guess that most proffesional
libraries have it.
So my question is: Are someone aware of a decent Gig/SFZ sample player
for Linux that can (or will) handle professional drum samples as
described above?
Thanks,
Jostein
