Fruity Soundfont Player
DEMO ONLY: Fruity Soundfont Player comes as a
demo version in FL Studio and needs to be purchased separately so
you can save projects containing Fruity Soundfont Player
channels.
|
Fruity SoundFont Player is an
advanced sampler which can load SoundFont2 instruments, drumkits,
or collections. This plugin uses the LiveSynth SF2 rendering
engine. SoundFonts are an excellent way of replicating acoustic
instruments such as string or brass sections.

Parameters
- Load SoundFont - This button is located in the
top left corner of the interface. Click it and select a SoundFont2
instruments/drumkits bank file to load (*.SF2).
- Edit SoundFont - This button is located in the
top right corner of the interface. Click it to open the current
SoundFont bank in a SoundFont editor to edit to instrument
definitions. The first time you run this feature, the SoundFont
player will ask you to browse and select a SoundFont Editor to be
used for this button.
- Patch LCD - Here you can set the patch
(instrument) number in the SoundFont collection to be played by the
generator.
- Bank LCD - Here you can set the bank number in
the SoundFont collection to be used by the generator.
- Name - Shows the name of the selected
instrument. Click this area to see a full list with
instruments/drumkits available in the currently loaded SoundFont
collection.
Reverb Section
This section gives you the ability to use a set of Fruity/VST/DX
effects on a send track as a reverb effect for the SoundFont player
instead of generator's internal reverb effect (which is generally
with lower quality).
- Send To LCD - Select here the send track
number to use for reverb send effect.
- Send Amount wheel - Use this wheel to add more
or less reverb to the instruments (it multiplies the reverb amount
for each instrument, so instruments with no reverb will remain with
no reverb).
- Use Built-in - If you turn on this option, the
SoundFont player will use its built-in reverb effect instead of
using FL Studio's send track.
Chorus Section
This section gives you the ability to use a set of Fruity/VST/DX
effects on a send track as a chorus effect for the SoundFont player
instead of generator's internal chorus effect (which is generally
with lower quality).
- Send To LCD - Select here the send track
number to use for chorus send effect.
- Send Amount wheel - Use this wheel to add more
or less chorus to the instruments (it multiplies the chorus amount
for each instrument, so instruments with no chorus will remain with
no chorus).
- Use Built-in - If you turn on this option, the
SoundFont player will use its built-in chorus effect instead of
using FL Studio's send track.
Envelope2 Section
You can use this section to override the volume envelope
settings used in the SoundFont instrument. The four sliders
represent the Attack (A), Decay (D), Sustain (S), Release (R)
levels of the SoundFont envelope. Keep these sliders set to minimum
to disable overriding of the predefined values.
LFO2 Section
You can use this section to override the pitch LFO settings used
in the SoundFont instrument. The three wheels represent the
Predelay (DEL), Amplitude (AMT), Speed (SPD) levels of the
SoundFont LFO. Keep these wheels turned maximum to left to disable
overriding of the predefined values.
Misc Section
- CUT - You can use this wheel to override the
cutoff level used in the SoundFont instrument. Keep the wheel
turned maximum to left to disable overriding of the predefined
cutoff levels.
- Modulation (MOD) - Turn this wheel to right to
add modulation to the instrument.
- HQ Rendering - Turn this switch on to get
higher quality rendering.
