Settings in Sforzando

To open the library, drag the SFZ file to Sforzando, or load the .aria file. Settings are described below:



Here is the Sforzando main screen that shows general info about the library. We suggest you change the polyphony to 128.



In the controls tab, you can play with the parameters other than the default.



To use the built-in effect in Sforzando, you must turn 'SEND (cc91)' up. We would suggest you add reverb/ambience (5% or more), to add a bit tail to the piano sound, simulating the piano enclosure resonance when all piano strings stop vibrating.



We recommend changing the 'Max Engine RAM Allocation' to 1 GB minimum.



Set audio buffer to 256 or less to minimize latency.

You can save the settings (Menu: File/Save as...) as .aria file for faster loading.
