Hi, people.

I've been sampling pianos using ''Extreme Sample Converter". I can extract samples and make them SF2 but when I play them with my midi keyboard, the sound cut just as I lift the finger, they don't have the ''acoustic'' sound of key release, it cuts just like it was a synth. I know there is a way to do/fix it because some other SF2/SFZ pianos have that attribute. Please if you know how to do it, you'll save my life.

There are two things that could be your problem. One, you may have your ADSR set with too short of a release. And two, you may not have a looped sample set up. Looping in multisampling is the act of having a Sample play through a seamless audio segment over and over until the release fades the sample or the sample ends. My belief is that one of these two things is the source of your problem.

A third thing that I just considered that could be a problem, is if the recorded sample is too short. What I mean by that, is that some samples record the whole sound from the time of the key is pressed until the entire natural decay has occurred. And other samples play just a short segment of the sound and are needing to be looped.

Problem with SF2 sampling.
