Will the sampler of Msoundfactory support Sf2 files?

I know some people think that this format is outdated and sfz is the thing, but some Sf2 instruments really have some very good decent quality, even better applying convolution and equing, in addition that is easy to find some free (very good content) Sf2 collections of multiple instruments; percussive, Orchestral, Keys, Synths and so on. For what i know can be used with Directwave, Tal-Sampler?, Kontakt; I saw somewhere that MDrummer already can use it. If Melda is familiarized with this format already would be a nice feature in the sampler module.

I don't think so really, it's basically about dev time, and well, you know . But who knows...

I would rather see the ability to import SFZ files. The SFZ spec is pretty ambitious, and nobody supports it all or even close. But a few well chosen attributes (to facilitate multi-sample playback and velocity layers) would be enough. Also, take the time to document what subset of the SFZ spec is supported. So far, the only developer I ever saw properly document SFZ was Camel Audio (Boo!!! Hiss!!!).

Any news on this. Chandler did a video on SFZ import, so it is possible. I am looking for synths that support a broad (sub)set of the SFZ spec (multi-samples, round robins, velocity layers). I have been able to get some primary results with Equator, but MSoundFactory would be a much more flexible / modular environment to work in.

SFZ is supported, but only a limited support of course. It imports regions, samples, loops etc., but no complex stuff. Just test it and you'll see.
