Sound Bank Manager

Manages the sound banks of the parent SpessaSynthProcessor instance.

Accessing

Access it through the soundfontManager property. 

processor.soundfontManager.doSomething();

Lookup behavior

The sound bank priority is defined as follows: The list is ordered from the most important sound bank to the least important. (e.g., first soundfont is used as a base, and the other sound banks get added on top (not override))

The lookup behavior itself is defined as follows: 1. The program looks for the first sound bank that has the requested program:bank combo and uses it. 2. If not found, the program looks for the first sound bank that has the requested program number and uses it. 3. If not found, the program uses the first preset of the first sound bank.

Please note that if the requested preset is a drum preset, step 2 will try to find the first drum preset.

processor.soundfontManager.deleteSoundFont(id);
- id - string - the ID of the sound bank to remove.

processor.soundfontManager.addNewSoundFont(soundBank, id, bankOffset);
- soundBank - BasicSoundBank - the new sound bank to add. - id - string - the ID of the sound bank. If it already exists, it will be replaced. - bankOffset - number - the bank number offset of the sound bank, set to 0 for no change.
