Hello Iam trying to read soundfonts and Ive had a terrible time trying to understand all the layers and when generators should overwrite or is relative. My question is first, is there a lib, that's loads sf2's and have a better structure then the file to retrieve info. Else ive to ask if someone can tell me the difference between a preset and an instrument dont understand why its two different "layers", why not just instruments? Ive seen some presets use more then one instrument, but can't understand why and makes me even more confused, what generators that should affect what sample. And I can still dont understand the global, local zone stuff. an easy description of this would be great, ive looked through the specifications but its all theory, cant find info on how to read and treat the actual data. any help would be great!
