Hi,
does somebody know a Linux tool for automatically converting soundfonts from
sf2 to sfz?
Regards,
Ralf
PS: I already installed 2 Windows tools, but would prefer a Linux tool.
If somebody should be interested to test those, too:
On Linux sforzando Version 1.933 and sfZed beta 0.9 can be installed and
launched using wine-staging 4.8 and much likely using any version of
wine-stable, too.
I haven't tested, if one or both apps do the job.
To install sforzando Version 1.933 open a terminal and run
mkdir -p $HOME/.wine-sf/drive_c/users/$USER/Downloads/{sforzando,sfzed}
cd $HOME/.wine-sf/drive_c/users/$USER/Downloads/sforzando/
wget
https://s3.amazonaws.com/sforzando/{WIN_sforzando_v1.933.exe,sforzando_guide.pdf,FreeSounds/WIN_ARIA_Engine_Free_Sounds_Vol1.exe}
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-sf wine WIN_sforzando_v1.933.exe
Wine asks to install wine-mono, just cancel.
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-sf wine WIN_ARIA_Engine_Free_Sounds_Vol1.exe
Continue with sfZed beta 0.9 by running
cd $HOME/.wine-sf/drive_c/users/$USER/Downloads/sfzed/
Since wget fails to download sfZed use w3m
w3m http://audio.clockbeat.com/sfZed.html
Use the cursor down key to navigate to "Download sfZed" and hit Enter.
As soon as "(Download)Save file to: sfZed09.zip" appears on the bottom hit
Enter.
After the download is complete push q and then confirm with y.
wget http://alt2.vst4free.com/get_plug/sfz.zip
unzip sfZed09.zip && rm sfZed09.zip
unzip sfz.zip && rm sfz.zip
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-sf wine sfz197.exe
Now everything is installed.
To launch sforzando Version 1.933 run
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-sf wine $HOME'/.wine-sf/drive_c/Program
Files/Plogue/sforzando/sforzando x64.exe' >/dev/null 2>&1
To launch sfZed beta 0.9 run
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-sf wine
$HOME/.wine-sf/drive_c/users/$USER/Downloads/sfzed/sfZed.exe >/dev/null 2>&1
The dll required by sfZed is located in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Vstplugins\sfz.dll
$HOME'/.wine-sf/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Vstplugins/sfz.dll'
