So you see, I wish to host more remix batols, but there is a problem >:0
I am burdened with a large quantity of sf2 files.
No one seems to like sf2. I can use them at a pinch, but for me also they slow down my daw a little.
Whats the least tedious way sf2's can be converted to wavs? would doing a remix batol with sf2 files to use be a bad idea?

i think having samples as mp3s in zips is preferred on botb.. or wavs, but they are big and bitpack sizes are limited.
i wouldnt mind sf2 packs, but i agree wav or mp3 would be better. i dont know about conversion tools because i never needed them,,,, whoops sry

There is an sf2extract program that does what it says, extracts samples from a .sf2 file to .wav files. It's part of libgig here: https://www.linuxsampler.org/libgig/ (has Windows binaries as well)

"it seems like a lotta people dont like sf2"
(which is sad because i use sf2 for pretty much everything LOL

anyways, since i always use to record directly from polyphone into audacity (which was a huge pain hehe), teh tool will be rly useful to me. thankies funute~
