Thank you for making this. Sending midi CC to soundfonts would be so awesome.

felixroos commented 2 years ago

yes that would be nice! i am not sure how far the underlying soundfont2 package supports modulators, but there is at least some source code. I have not yet used soundfonts with modulators, do you have specific ones to test modulators with?

coderofsalvation commented 2 years ago

yes, i can make a simple sf2 with standard midi cc's (volume & pan are probably the first lowhanging fruits) along with a midifile.

I think the 'hardest' cc's are reverb & chorus send, but maybe a nice 'cheat' would be using the native webaudio nodes for that (would be a nice performance-win compared to fluidsynth)

that would be nice to have something for testing, tbh i have not done much yet with soundfonts so i am learning how this works by implementing 🙂the main purpose of this lib is to be used by strudel, example https://strudel.tidalcycles.org/?u7qAdlwp3Qig using native webaudio nodes for the default behavior sounds good, the sampling engine is also implemented with buffer nodes
