Hello list, Timidity usually gives good results, but on some soundfonts it will produce an annoying clicking sound. As an example, I have uploaded an MP3 of a wave file created with Timidity that contains the clicking noise. Also uploaded are the MIDI file and the soundfont used (there is only a single instrument involved).
http://firstbooks.biz/midi/beatgen.mp3 (MP3 file is about 3.4 Mb) http://firstbooks.biz/midi/beatgen.mid http://firstbooks.biz/midi/WT_Clarinet.sf2 (SF2 file is about 330 kB) Note: This is a microtonal composition, so if the tuning sounds a bit off it is deliberate. If I render this file with fluidsynth the clicking noise does not occur. Also, if I tweak the attack or decay rates in the Timidity configuration file, I can mitigate the clicking noise somewhat but cannot eliminate it entirely. Could this be a problem with the soundfont or is Timidity just not able to process SF2 fonts completely?
