Then when you run the EXE it loads the DLL (VST) and lets you use whatever functionality it offers.īut then I wanted to try several VST at once (as well as the SF2 players there are free Oscilloscope and Spectrum Analyzers in the form of VST) so rather than wrapping each individually I looked for a "DAW" that would allow you to use VST.

dll file is built as 32 bit or 64 bit you just copy the relevant NanoHostXXbit.exe into the same directory and give the name before ".exe" as exactly the same name as the DLL. That gives you two versions called NanoHost32bit.exe and NanoHost64bit.exe. I tried several but in the end I think I like the elegant simplicity of "Nanohost" from Tone2. At first I used each VST as standalone programs - to do this you need a "wrapper" that can run a single VST standalone. In the end I think I preferred the elegant simplicity of "Soundfonter" from that list though Jeskola deserves an honourable mention.īut then I needed a way to play them.

Kobe (actually a full synth but with SF2 support but just too complicated to operate!). Almost everything I found came in the form of a VST (a plugin for Digital Audio Workstation software) so next I looked for SF2 playing VST and also some way to actually load and run VST themselves. This is where I headed off at a tangent as I needed a way to "audition" SF2s to hear what sounded good and what sounded rough. So I needed a collection that was about 1.5MB. But we're talking about a Teensy 4 here with 2MB of flash and that also needs to hold other stuff. This ranges from the very small (and very poor quality) up to the very (VERY!) large and some really great samples. So I started to look around at collections of those 128 instruments as SF2 files which ultimately led to me collecting quite a few at: Back in the mists of time the powers that be suggested a fixed collection of 128 instruments in a certain order so if you played the same MIDI file to different sound sources, as long as they implemented the GM list, it would sound similar. Then I started to think about "General MIDI". Now my first thought was simply to add just the same instruments as VL-1 (Piano, Flute, Violin etc) but I'm also a sucker for the sound of Church Organ so I thought I might add that too. Which is invoked with Python 3.6 using "python controller.py": Well Teensy Audio not only has waveform generators (VCO), Envelopes, Filters and so on but there is also:Īnd this uses an instrument that can be extracted from an SF2 SoundFont file (this format originally created for the Creative Soundblaster AWE32 - a card I bought about 20+ years ago!!) using: So the "ADSR" one (at right) basically meant the synth where the calculator memory was used to define wave shape, attack, decay, sustain, release, etc but then it also had 5 "real" instruments: Piano, "Fantasy", Violin, Flute and Guitar and clearly these used some kind of wavetable to provide the shape of the note that would then be scaled to the right frequency of the note played. Going right back to the start of these pages you'll see that the initial inspiration to design and build a synth was "something a bit like a Casio VL-Tone/VL-1".
