    this is funny, but there are too many similar Presets.<br>you should apply operators at Instrument level.<br>check this;<br>https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kNqo1vlr0zABm4lGvEuZr0TptXmFKt_4/view?usp=sharing<br>

    The synthetic soundfont is my attempt to synthesize the sounds of various instruments using the techniques I'm familiar with. In particular, I only use periodic samples with an exponential fade, and no other features to keep it as simple as possible, so that the synthesis can be easily used outside of the soundfont format such as in embedded devices.

    It all started when I attempted to synthesize the piano sound in synthetic soundfont 1.0: https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts/1655 

    And I have funcbeat version of instrument synthesis:

    and funcbeat drum synthesis:

    but what use is it to have six or seven Presets containing exactly the same Instrument?

    Because MIDI has 128 instruments in it, so I have to map to all 128 instruments or else some of the MIDI notes end up being silent. When I only had 1 instrument, I mapped the same instrument to all 128 presets. With more instruments, I map them to the best fit.
