Is this now the non-plus-ultra Soundfont-Generator ?
Looks great. Have currently no time to test the demo.
Could you generate Soundfonts from scratch or is it just a converter ?

Looks like you can generate.

I love this program. ESC is absolutely indespensable for my Wusikstation and SampleTank activities. Sometimes I wish it did ST2, and I can't wait for NNXT (and hopefully someday VSampler)support. But, it is incredibly accurate, and ST2 loads ST1 obviously, and NNXT and VSampler load sf2, so it's all good at the end of the day. A must-have if you've got any sampler that uses any of its supported formats.

What do you think, though, about the tuning? I think it needs tweeking. It's kind of hard to figure out which layer to modify, etc... Am I missing something?

According to the website, the next version will feature editing, so it's probably still a worthwhile app to jump aboard unless you need the editing functions -NOW-.

well there is patch editing... Heh

I just checked the site and don't see where you found that information about the next version, can you please direct me?

Nope. I just had a look and I can't find it either. It must have been a deep link from a news release, because it's no longer to be found. It had a big "Extreme Sample Converter 2005" banner faded out behind the details.

Don't see it now. :!:

The author of ESC was very helpful. I asked via email about whether it was possible to change the mapping ranges of samples. You can't do it at the moment, but I'm told there are editing facilities on the way.
