Some SFZ format mappings for Pianobook libraries

[Synthiemental]

It’s great to see that the Pianobook collection is becoming more accessible, especially with the latest release of more than 100 sets in the wonderful DecentSampler format.

Hence I want to use the opportunity to share some additional mappings in the SFZ format, which can be used with the free Sforzando instrument, which also enjoys quite some popularity. Some of these mappings have not been added to their respective pages yet, it would be great if the admins could do this!

There are SFZ format mappings available for:

David’s CP70
Hunsicker Helpenstill
Jon Meyer Kawai Felt Piano
mRhodes
Mason & Hamlin Model A – Pianobook
Jon Meyer Soft Drums
Soft String Spurs
Sol’s Piano
The King’s Upright

Find them in the SFZinstruments GitHub repository here: https://github.com/sfzinstruments/mappings/tree/master/Pianobook%20SFZ

Greetings!
Thank you for the post and link.
Curious. I’m quite new to all of this.
I found the sfz mapping files however they wish to be saved as an HTML text document.
i can copy the text of the file and save as a text document but haven’t a clue as to how to properly save as a sfz file.
Grateful for your thought and response on the matter.
cheers,
B~

Bryon,
One other note. SFZ files are just text files. If you have saved as a text file (eg instrument.txt) just rename the extension from txt to sfz (eg instrument.sfz). it is still just a text file.
