[edit] bi-directional compatible?
Shouldn't that be worded as either bi-directionally compatible or more correctly as cross-compatible (compare backwards-compatible and foreward-compatible)--Jack Schitt 07:41, 5 June 2006 (UTC) Yep, should be bidirectionally compatible. Mikeguz 06:31, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] how to use soundfont with sonar?
I'm a newby using sf2/midi files. I use to work with Guitar Pro, then Reason to create samplers for the midi files, but I had no satisfying results with redrum while importing, 'cause the drum pieces - like hihats or bass - doesn't match. I'd like to use soundfounds for the drum tracks but I don't know how. Could someone give me a hint or something? I'd appreciate very much.
[edit] Soundfont player?
Does anyone know of a simple soundfont player that can open up sf2 files and allow playback with a clickable keyboard interface?
- Yes, look at the free SoundFont/MIDI player SynthFont or the SoundFont editor Viena (not "Vienna") at www.synthfont.com.
[edit] trademark
i read on the FluidSynth web site that "SoundFont(R) is a registered trademark of E-mu Systems, Inc." This article does say it is a brand name, but perhaps the trademark holder should be mentioned? --Jerome Potts 03:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Memory limit/ Hardware synths
On SoniVox's web site, they mentioned that a library in Kontakt or Giga format was about 1.3 GB, but due to a memory limit, but due to a memory limit, the SoundFont library fit onto one CD. What's that about? The article did not mention anything about a memory limit. Also, I think it would be informative if the article mentioned something about the hardware synthesizers (Korg M3, etc) that use SoundFont. Dr G (talk) 20:32, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
