Or, maybe I misunderstand how it all works, and the player app must have special support General MIDI, and not just the soundfont that you're loading in that must be General MIDI. If you don't like BS-16i I assume they'd work in the B-Ray Soundfonts app: I have no experience with them, but there are several General MIDI soundfonts at the soundfonts4u website: Instead of googling for single instrument soundfonts, why not just try to locate the best General MIDI soundfont and start using it all the time? (I.e., once you find it, no need to google for anything anymore.) Use it in any soundfont playing app you want. I'm not clear on whether you're primarily seeking an app/sf player or a better General MIDI soundfont. Which other apps/sound font players are general midi compatible, similar to to Roland sound canvas/BS16i?īasically I am looking for a replacement for the now defunct Roland Sound Canvas It's just a dying standard that hasn't been replaced but needs to be simulated with configurations in apps like AUM or composed in a notation said: Yamaha also "retired" their "MDXG: XG Sound Set Controller" too. I like BS-16i for this use case because it's designed to support many instruments and gets all the little details (like drums are always channel 10) right.īut I agree and really miss SoundCanvas. It hadn't occurred to me to throw a general midi file at World Synth yet.
Sweet midi player soundfont free#
I recently discovered that the "World Synth" and "World Piano" apps are free and can load SF2's which are also free from many places with my favorite being the hosted "SoundFonts4u" at:
"FluidR2" is worth auditing against anything else that works.
I think SF2's are still useful for this particular file standard. Worth checking out.Īnd he has made "MIDI SWEET: Module Unit (AU)" that might be worth checking into. Jens Gruell has an app called "GM MIDI Player" that is free.
