TOPIC: Polyphone as an Instrument ?

Is anyone using Polyphone 'directly' as an instrument ?
( since not all modulaters etc are interpreted correctly or at all in other sf players )

Thanks

I assume you mean "Is anyone using Polyphone as a synth"?

I have no idea, they can use it for whatever they want to - however they would be well advised to use sound fonts correctly.

In my opinion Fluidsynth is the standard by which other synths should be judged and as far as I can tell it uses modulators in accordance with the sf2 standard.

I'm on a Mac... OSX 10.10.5...
Fluidsynth has no Mac installer, or am I wrong ?

If there is no binary executable available for your mac you will have to compile it from the source. I have done this myself on occasion but it is not a trivial process even for an experienced programmer.

i use the Coolsoft Virtual Midi Synth, it plays soundfonts as good as my Soundblaster Audigy.
dont know if there is a Mac version, but Google will help you find out.

...not for Mac...
