Sfizz_jack volume control

Post by amc252 »

Hello everybody,

Is there a way to control volume or gain when using sfizz_jack from the terminal?
Sfizz manual does not mention anything on that regard.

Thanks.

I have not found an option. Maybe connecting it to jack_mixer is a workaround for you.

CC7 should work (midi controller volume slider).
Maybe this is helpful:
https://github.com/gbevin/SendMIDI

Edit: Just tried it. Compiled the above, ran sfizz-jack, connected the appropriate jack equivalent of my Alsa midi through port 0 to sfizz, ran

Code: Select all

./sendmidi dev Port-0 cc 7 20

And the volume of Sfizz is indeed lowered to 20.

Yes sendmidi works.
I also tried editing the SFZ file and adding

Code: Select all

<global>
volume=20

and that worked too.
