Dear Christian, Thank you for your reply. I did more testing on the problem I reported last week and I am certain it is a bug that has been remained unnoticed. I have attached a simple SFZ instrument that reproduces the bug. Unfortunately, the bug is extremely serious, avoiding producing complex instruments for LinuxSampler, particularly for high-quality piano instruments... Within the current bug, there is no way to include soft-pedal samples along with sustain samples and sustained-soft samples, because LinuxSampler plays false region samples!
Here are the list of attached files: 1. bug.sfz which shows the main bug of LinuxSampler that plays the wrong region. There are 8 regions defined by categorizing the three pedals (CC64, CC66, and CC67) and LinuxSampler entirely fails to distinguish the categories when they are included together in a region. 2. on_cc.sfz is not really important, but demonstrates why we cannot use on_loccN for categorizing (see below).3. there are eight tiny wav files, which simply say their number (0 to 7). I gave each category a number with a corresponding audio file to really simplify the bug. I hope it helps. The Wav files can be downloaded from my Dropbox and are about 1 mb: instruments.zip | | | | | | | | | | | instruments.zip Shared with Dropbox | | | 1. Testing CC categorization on other SFZ players I did more testing to make sure this is indeed only happening in LinuxSampler. I tested my bug.sfz instrument on another SFZ player on Linux called liquidsfz and sfizz plugin. In Windows, I tested it with Sforzando and Aria player. All four samplers played the instrument correctly. So I am getting confident that it is a linuxsampler bug. 2. Regarding your comment on using on_loccN:There is a difference between on_loccN/on_hiccN and loccN/hiccN. We use on_loccN for triggering sounds that do not receive a particular notes. For example, if I want to add a pedal release noise sound to be played when a sustain pedal is pressed (which does not have a key number), I will write the code below: <region> sample=sustainPress.wav on_locc64=64 on_hicc64=127 This will trigger the noise sound anytime the cc64 is above the threshold, without requiring any key to be pressed. SFZ format defines the alternative loccN/hiccN for regions that require a note to be pressed. I put the documentations below for reference of those who like to read more about the difference: - on_loccN/on_hiccN- loccN/hiccN 3. Solving the bug I am willing to help with solving the bug if it requires so much effort. So please let me know how can we go about it and how can I make myself useful. Cheers, Ebad
