Sound font issues in 0.9.8 #444

Closed Tasosgemah closed 6 months ago

Tasosgemah commented 6 months ago

I was using this soundfont in 0.9.7

Roland SC-55_2.zip

And it worked fine in all games i tried. But in 0.9.8 it sounds wrong in DOOM II (didn't test many games yet so others might also have issues).

Did something change in the audio? Is it a bug? It's not an issue with the soundfont because it also sounds correct outside RetroArch.

Duke Nukem also sounds wrong, there are some annoying clicking sounds with some instruments.

0.9.7 sounds correct.

I also use that soundfont and have the same problem.

Other soundfonts seem to sound ok (so far). Btw check out the Arachno soundfont, Doom I and II sound great with it.

It sounds pretty bad IMO, but that's a matter of taste i suppose. That's why i avoid using custom/fan made soudfonts. I just want to use the "default" sound.

Thanks for reporting. It should be fixed again in 0.9.9. Can you give it a try?

PoloniumRain commented 6 months ago

Yep it sounds correct in 0.9.9.

Will version 1.0 be next? Out of beta?

Tasosgemah commented 6 months ago

Can confirm the soundfont now sounds correct in DOOM II and Duke Nukem 3D.
