Loading of SF2 files

Post by Kenny59 »

I have some SF2 files to load into the Kronos. I need to add a short release and effects to these sounds. What is the easiest way to accomplish this.

Thanks,

If you loaded it into a program you'll need to do the following:

To add/decrease release time:

- Press the Amp/EG Tab
- Press the Amp1 EG
- In the "Envelope" group, change the value of "release" of the "Time" section.
Changing it for a higher value you'll increase release time and lower value you'll decrease it.

To add an effect just use the IFX Tab to route it to one of the IF Channels and add the effect you like.

Hope that helped. ;)

Thanks for the tip. I was able to make adjustments. I've got M1 sounds in Sf2 format, but it need some work with the release and effects. I just wish I still had my T3 to make comparisons with.

Thank you for your help.

What I often do is use an existing HD-1 Program of a similar instrument and replace the multisample(s) with the multisample from the converted SF2. You benefit from all the envelope, FX and other settings made in the existing Program

I have the Programs and the Combi sounds. I can handle the Programs, but I am unsuccessful loading the Combis. Are the also loaded in the HD-1 section also or are they supposed to be opened in another part of the Kronos.
