Calf-fluidsynth - *.sf2 autoscan #22

Open trebmuh opened 9 years ago

trebmuh commented 9 years ago

Would be awesome for newcomers to have an "autoscan sf2" button which can just be something as simple as a find / -name *sf2 on the backend, producing a list you can choose one from.

Cheers for the Calf* BTW, definitely an awesome work

going further, a way to auto-select one by default would be a great plug'n'play addition

if /usr/share/sounds/sf2/ is the standard place fluid installs it's sound fonts (ubuntu and I would guess debian do) Then just setting the directory for font selection there instead of PWD would be wonderful at least for newbys. The user shouold know that the little house means home directory if they have installed some there. Of course having a standard set of directories like LV2 does that get scanned would be nice. The system as well as ~/.sf2 for example.
