As usual, a splendid and rapid reply: many thanks. I am just cutting my first CD courtesy of SynthFont, so hopefully this should keep the choir happy!

I haven't yet managed to get Composer to play through SynthFont but I guess I have missed a setting somewhere and that is not on my critical path.

One thing I have found is that if I try to add in SoundFonts from a range of sources, I then have to rebalance the volumes on the tracks. For example I found a nice violin sound but it seemed much louder than the other fonts I had loaded. Again I'm sure this will come in time.

Thanks again .. Tim

Keys to getting SynthFont to be the sound source:

1. Have the LoopBe1 installed.
2. Turn SynthFont on first.
3. Then turn on Composer
4. Now in SynthFont, click the "Activate MIDI Input" button (order is important.)

Being able to hear the soundfonts while playing the song in Composer will definitely help in balancing out the various instruments. I, too, find that some soundfont sets have the instruments at different levels than others, so tweaking that during playback on the same device is crucial to good balance.

Enjoy!

Hi friends,

I'm adding the information to all SynthFont related posts that with the Notation Software Synth, as well as the advanced audio capabilities of version 5 and going forward, there is no need to use SynthFont with our software as our synth is actually more flexible and handles more than SynthFont does.

ttfn,
