### sf3convert

Utilities for SoundFont files.

* compress sound font files with ogg vorbis for use with [MuseScore](http://musescore.org)

* convert to "C" for embedding

### Compilation

#### Dependencies

* Qt >= 5.6

* libsndfile

* libogg

* libvorbis

```

$ make release

```

### Usage Example:

This compresses the Fluid sound font from 148 MBytes to 20 MBytes.

    sf3convert -z FluidR3.SF2 mops.sf3

**The compressed sound font has the major version number 3. Its non standard

and can be used only (so far) by [MuseScore](http://musescore.org).**

### TODO:

Stereo samples are compressed as two single streams instead of compressing

them as stereo ogg vorbis streams. This may be less optimal.
