Detailed Description

Embeddable SoundFont synthesizer.

You create a new synthesizer with new_fluid_synth() and you destroy if with delete_fluid_synth(). Use the settings structure to specify the synthesizer characteristics.

You have to load a SoundFont in order to hear any sound. For that you use the fluid_synth_sfload() function.

You can use the audio driver functions described below to open the audio device and create a background audio thread.

The API for sending MIDI events is probably what you expect: fluid_synth_noteon(), fluid_synth_noteoff(), ...

// we need twice as many (mono-)buffers
channels *= 2;
// fluid_synth_nwrite_float renders planar audio, e.g. if synth.audio-channels==16: each midi channel gets rendered to its own stereo buffer, rather than having one buffer and interleaved PCM

◆ fluid_synth_add_sfloader()

FLUIDSYNTH_API void fluid_synth_add_sfloader ( fluid_synth_t synth,

)

Add a SoundFont loader to the synth.

This function takes ownership of loader and frees it automatically upon synth destruction.

Parameters
synthFluidSynth instance
loaderLoader API structure

SoundFont loaders are used to add custom instrument loading to FluidSynth. The caller supplied functions for loading files, allocating presets, retrieving information on them and synthesizing note-on events. Using this method even non SoundFont instruments can be synthesized, although limited to the SoundFont synthesis model.

Note
Should only be called before any SoundFont files are loaded.

Parameters
synthFluidSynth instance
sampleSample to assign to the voice
chanMIDI channel number (0 to MIDI channel count - 1)
keyMIDI note number for the voice (0-127)
velMIDI velocity for the voice (0-127)
Returns
Allocated synthesis voice or NULL on error

This function is called by a SoundFont's preset in response to a noteon event. The returned voice comes with default modulators and generators. A single noteon event may create any number of voices, when the preset is layered.

Note
Should only be called from within synthesis thread, which includes SoundFont loader preset noteon method.
