Can't load a .sfz

• Dec 13, 2018 - 21:13

I downloaded KSP-Reborn soundfont which comes in .sfz, and I can't load it. MuseScore keeps giving me the attached error.
I am sure I have everything installed and I tried reseting to factory settings. Alas, only wasted my time. Any way I can fix this? I am using Win7.

At this point all development work is on MuseScore 3; there will be no further fixes for MuseScore 2. So can you try the MsueScore 3 beta and see if you can reproduce the problem there? If so, then please submit an official bug report via the issue tracker, and include the link to the soundfont there.

I downloaded an SFZ format ZIP file from: https://samplesoundbank.com/tenor-ukulele-ballad-solo
The ZIP file extracted okay (WAV folder and SFZ file) and loads okay into MuseScore 2.3.2

However, none of my scores playback with the sounds (silence only). One possible issue is the SFZ format specification: http://www.sfzformat.com/legacy

I manually re-built the SFZ file with bare-bone Opcodes and now the scores can playback with the sounds. I am pleased with the level of detail that developer accomplished with the number of samples provided in the WAV folder.

I will drop a query to the developer with regard to the SFZ format specification that he used.
