musescore-general-soundfont-small 0.1.9-1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu focal
This is the new standard hard disc space-saving SF3 format
soundfont as shipped with MuseScore 2.2 and newer.
.
This release of the soundfont supports Single-Note Dynamics with
MuseScore 3.2 and higher.
.
MuseScore_General attempts to keep the installed-size footprint
low while providing the complete GM (General MIDI) sound set
and some extras; were it not for the new pianos, it would even
be smaller than its antecessor fluidr3mono-
restoring stereo samples for some instruments and the new focus
on quality, thanks to numerous optimisations and bugfixes.
.
It can be used with most modern MIDI synthesisers which support
the SF3 format, although early implementations (such as the one
from MuseScore before release 2.2) had bugs making the resulting
sound bad; instead use fluidr3mono-
.
As it comes under the MIT licence, it can be used in most settings,
but do remember that waveforms generated using this soundfont are
“copies or substantial portions of the” soundfont.
.
The musescore-
soundfont (as shipped with MuseScore 3.x), lossily SF3 compressed.
The musescore-
HQ version of the soundfont (with separate ensembles instruments
and other large improvements) as SF3, whereas the SF2 HQ version
is packaged as musescore-
synthesisers lacking SF3 support, by audiophiles, and to avoid
long MuseScore startup times; however with a large disc footprint.
.
This package will be installed into /usr/share/
is the standard Debian location for system-wide SF3 soundfonts.
