Category:Soundfonts

This category contains pages about different soundfonts that can be used to change how a midi file sounds.

What's a soundfont?
A soundfont (or .sf2) is a file that changes the sound of midi instruments when loaded up into certain midi playback software.

Software that supports soundfonts (.sf2)
VLC Media Player has Fluidsynth support, so it can load .sf2 files). A guide of how to do that can be found on its page on this wiki.

FL Studio - .sf2 files can be loaded over Midi Out if the soundfont features are used, but you have to remember what instrument that track used; upon loading a soundfont over a track, it resets it to Patch 1 (Grand Acoustic Piano)
