I know I've read the procedure before, but I forget it. I just downloaded SFZ+ but I don't find it in Sonar. What's the procedure to let Sonar find it?

You have to have Sonar rescan your VST's.

Then go in to Plugin Manager and add it to your plugin list and save the changes.

If it's not in the list when you go in to the Plugin Manager you will have to add the folder SFZ + was installed to, to the list of folders the VST Scanner looks in, then do another scan.

Hope that helps.

By the way ... I use SFZ+ with Sound Fonts ... if you've never used it before it's a little tricky to get going. You have to change the 'Mode' settings to PR32 otherwise you get a 'Not enough memory error'.

The dark gray bar at the bottom of the SFZ + window is a piano keyboard but the graphics aren't there. You can test the sound of your SF2 files by clicking on the gray bar

Good luck.

OK, SFZ+ is still hiding from me. The sfz+.dll file is in the vstplugins folder, but doesn't appear in the vst list inside Sonar when I look for it. Shouldn't this be easier?

in the plug in mgr... add it to the list and rescan. it should show up under the synth list

Yea, dapper, you have to be sure that SONAR via the plug in manager is scanning the folder where you put sfz.

There it is! Thanks, guys. : )
