Home - SFZ Format Welcome to SFZFormat com! This is the main reference point for anyone who wants to create virtual musical instruments using the SFZ format The SFZ format is a file format to define how a collection of samples are arranged for performance
SFZ Players - SFZ Format There are several SFZ players, which are used to play samples as defined in SFZ files Sforzando currently offers the most complete SFZ standard support, including ARIA extensions, but SFZ files which only use the SFZ v1 or SFZ v2 standard will work with multiple SFZ players
Intro to SFZ - SFZ Format A SFZ file is a set of plain text, computer-readable instructions, which accompany a sample set and define how the sampler should load and work with those samples
SFZ Creation Tools - SFZ Format Although SFZ files can be created with any text editor, and some users have also created SFZ with spreadsheets, there are some dedicated tools which can make mapping large amounts of samples easier
Basic SFZ file Basic SFZ file Just copy the following in your preferred text editor We also have a section in the tools page listing some text editor's SFZ syntax highlighting add-ons Fill in the blanks and save as an SFZ:
Opcodes - SFZ Format Opcodes All opcode versions, including extensions, starting in alphabetical order Note that modulations such as (on)ccN and vel2* are included in the pages describing the parameters they modulate Opcode links in red color represent obsolete opcodes which should not be used in new instruments
The - SFZ Format The goal behind the sfz format is to provide a free, simple, minimalistic and expandable format to arrange, distribute and use audio samples with the highest possible quality and the highest possible performance flexibility
Drum basics - SFZ Format Drum basics SFZ has a lot of opcodes No instrument uses all of them, though, and even highly complicated instruments with thousands of samples will usually only use a dozen or two different opcodes In this guide, we'll talk about the opcodes needed to make a simple drum kit
Modular SFZ Instruments SFZ opcodes set under headers within an included file will be in effect until encountering another header of the same or higher level For example, let's say a snare drum sample map contains one-shot samples under <region> headers and also multisampled hits under a <group> header later in the file, and this file is called snare_map sfz
Control of volume - SFZ Format The SFZ format allows many different ways of controlling volume There's the modulation of volume by opcodes, there's velocity tracking, and there's also modualtion by envelopes and LFOs
