sfizz-render

sfizz-render now is bundled in https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz

Building and installing

sfizz-render requires the sndfile library ; on Debian-based systems, you can install libsndfile1-dev. It also requires sfizz installed as a shared library. On Arch you have AUR packages available for this, or install it from source following the information in (https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz). To build the release from source use

git clone --recursive https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz-render.git
cd sfizz-render
make

Usage

You have to specify 3 elements to sfizz-render:

• A MIDI/SMF file
• An SFZ file
• An output WAV file The output file can only be a stereo WAV file for now, not because of technical reasons because libsndfile is very versatile, but because I did not want to multiply the possible flags.

The basic usage is

sfizz-render --wav wav_file.wav --sfz sfz_file.sfz --midi midi_file.mid

The complete list of command line options is:

Render a midi file through an SFZ file using the sfizz library.
