Hello. I'm not sure if I posted this to the right area or not, but I wanted to inquire from all of you that create plugins within this forum, if any of you know how to create a VST plugin (preferably compatible with both PC and Mac). What I am looking for is a Soundfont Player that plays multi-layer soundfonts. I ask because the only one that I've seemed to find is SFZ+, but wanted to see if one could even be created with SM, and if so, if it would be easy to create, or very detailed and difficult. I've seen others like SafFron Player but this one does not play multi-layer soundfonts. You can shoot me a PM or email me at [email removed] if you are able to create one or have tips or suggestions on how to do so. Thank you all in advance.

loading soundfonts currently does not work with sm, there is some undocumented alpha module, but its practically unusable. if you insist on loading and playing back existing soundfonts on mac & pc i have no idea, but if you want to playback multisamples and manually set up what a soundfont automatically does, like velocity zones, filter, vibrato etc, this is possible, but only for pc.

Ahhh, I see. Thank you Michael for your input, I appreciate it. Guess I'll have to see if someone can create a SynthEdit module for me. I create many soundfonts and was looking for a custom created soundfont player that plays multi-layer soundfonts, but so far no luck. I don't like some of the images on SynthEdit though and SynthMaker has very nice GUI so I was hoping it was possible. Thanks anyway though, I appreciate it!

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
