I obviously don't have a soundblaster card, which is required for some software such as Vienna, in order to create your own .sf2 files by combining samples from other soundfonts into one. On my search in trying to find out how to combine soundfonts however, I found out something I had missed before about BassMIDI. In the BassMIDI "configure driver" options window, the lowest .sf2 on the list that you load in, overwrites everything above it. What I didn't realize was that if it is an incomplete .sf2, like a guitar set only, BassMIDI will look to the next sf2 up on the list to fill in all the rest of the sounds. In this way, you can essentially create your own soundfont, simply by how you order the .sf2s on the list. My first test of this worked somewhat when I put a guitar sf2 at the bottom of the list and WeedsGM3 directly above it. Unfortunately the guitar only overwrote the first sound samples, which were piano, so the effect wasn't perfect. Perhaps I need to place individual samples in the order that I can see in XMplay or maybe that sf2 just wasn't suited for what I was trying to accomplish. Now that I have an idea on how to add in specific sounds, I'll be searching out good individual sound fonts, while keeping a base soundfont at the top. It's pretty fun to experiment with. :) ~Edited as I learned more~ [/quote]
