Nice work!!! Downloading 1.64 now. By the way I sent you a PM to request the new sound bank. Thanks.

Lovin it! The only thing that bothers me is that when I click on a soundfont in the browser (let's say it's in the middle of the browser, amongst many other SF2's), the soundfont now moves all the way to the bottom of the list in the browser (once I have clicked on it). I would like it to stay in the same place even once I have clicked it to load it so I can easily load the next SF2 without having to scroll down to it (since the previous selected SF2 jumps to the bottom of the list, I now need to scroll down to be able to load the next one)

Other than that, I love this Soundfont player!!!

Oh yeah, one more thing. Can you make an option so that when you load a new soundfont, it makes the state of the plugin go back to default? Right now if I load a SF2 and change the attack and adjust the tremolo (for example), if I load another SF2, these settings are kept but I want them to be reset to the default settings each time I load a new SF2.

Glad you like Phenome!

You can use your keyboard's arrow keys (arrow down/up) to browse soundfonts/presets also! (Make sure the browser is in focus).
Hope this helps for now - but i will fix this in on of the next updates.

That's an excellent idea! Will come in the next update! Thanks!!

Just gave Phenome v1.64 a test drive and everything is working great! Thanks for all your dedicated hard work. I think it's just about perfect.

Just had another idea.

I love the one click loading of SF2's.

As you know, some SF2's contain several sounds/patches. You access these by clicking the name of the loaded SF2 in the Phenome GUI and you select a different patch here.

How about adding a second column in the browser? So you click SF2 the same way you currently do in the browser, but if that SF2 contains several presets, then those are themselves displayed in a second colum to the right of the first column. Then you can click the patches the same way and they load in the Phenome slot.

Mhh i quite like this idea.
Then you could easily audition several SF2 patches without moving the mouse too much!

But remember: Phenome will still load the entire SF2 (not just the patches).

I will think about this! Might be a good idea!!

EDIT: Will do (As you suggested, a new browser next to the default one)

Excellent!!!

Didn't manage to make it remember last used folder, eh (if you did, it's not working here in Reaper)?


Otherwise, congrats on the release!

Well actually it should remember the last folder(s) !
(When reloading a song/project).

I will look into this again ...

Will definitly check this new version out once I've got my new baby revealed here on KvR.

Try this in Reaper:

1. Load new project
2. Load Phenome
3. Browse to a SF2 and load it
4. Close the project without saving and open a new empty project
5. Load Phenome - path is not preserved
