hi, im looking for a sf2 editor(simple, fast) to make my own kits.....

Ooh. I'd also like to hear responses to this. If I could make a soundfont that contained all my favorite sounds without having to buy a Creative card... mmm...

So far the only one I've found is Awave Studio, but that isn't free. http://www.fmjsoft.com/ It's a good an easy one though. Check out the demo.

Still wonder if there're any free ones around. Maybe Synthfont... hmm.

There's Viena. Not sure how good it is. I'm checking it out now.

Vienna is very nice but a bit outdated - if you're one reason you could use the nn-xt and then convert into SF2

Viena's kind of a pain in the ass... hmm. I might get Awave Studio in time, because that's, so far, the easiest to use.

Yeah, but what do you want to use for actually making the kits? AFAIK Awave only converts?

I think you can assign samples to the keyboard in Awave... can't remember anymore.

Vienna is the bOMB for making soundfont'z.... just over look using the creative card;
(If it bother'z you that much) !! ....hehe
Anyway, you can always use a vsti that load soundfonts and uses filter / mod'z as you
might need to save as a preset later. .... NP.

Ive Used Vienna, for say 11 years, without a prov, so go on, and nJoY!!

Extreme Sample Converter, although not free, does a great job of converting to/from soundfonts - and you can create sf2's as well.

just thought Id point out that there are 2 editors called Vienna and Viena, just a slight spelling difference....fuking stupid IMO

1 Vienna is a soundfont editor for compatible creative sound cards

2 Viena does not require a creative soundcard

And where can you get "Viena" ?
EDIT:
"SynthFont has been updated to v0.9.8 which also includes Viena, a Vienna SoundFont editor clone"
hmm...

It's from the maker of SynthFont (and VSTSynthFont).
