These days I came to know the SF3 format and that it is usually 8x smaller in size when compairing to SF2. The reason is clear: it uses audio in compressed format. So I was wondering: does using SF3 with FluidSynth provides better performance (less latency) or less RAM usage when compared to using SF2 format? Has anyone of you noticed this?
no. the soundquality is like instant coffee and to play the sound the compressed file must be unpacked and like for yourself, unpacking is very tiring for a computer too. regards bottrop
