Bootstrap 5.3.0 with color modes

Posted on June 03, 2023 by redtide

Bootstrap updated to v5.3.0 which supports color modes, which means that if your system uses a dark color theme, it will adapt to your visual preferences on browsers that supports it. Highlight.js will adapt to the chosen theme, so the sfz examples will be shown with it.

Opcodes page update

Posted on October 16, 2020 by redtide

For those who missed it we have some updates on the website, mainly regarding the opcodes page. Recently I’ve added a javascript library that permits tables column sorting, and now with an awesome contribution from @jpcima also a script to filter opcode names, versions and categories. Hope you’ll find them handy!

New tutorial and opcode additions

Posted on March 17, 2020 by redtide

A new tutorial about subtractive synthesizers was shared by DSmolken’s sample instruments experience applied in the Caveman Cosmonaut sample library.
Some fixes and additions were made in our opcode database and in software as well, like the Windows OpenMPT music tracker by sagamusix.
New contributions was provided by other users like jisaacstone, and a big contribution from jpcima for the effects section.
Now we have also a new page for convenience that lists all opcodes present in our database.

New year, new work in progress

Posted on January 31, 2020 by redtide

The most relevant additions on the website for this month were Instruments and Modulations sections, adding slowly one by one some sample instruments libraries created and freely distribuited over the net, and documenting in a generic way the various modulations used in SFZ. Some new opcodes were also added in our database, starting from some modulation aliases like amplitude_ccN, pan_ccN and tune_ccN to the recent fil_gain. I would like to thank some people who contributed to the site, like falkTX for adding our news feed on Linuxaudio Planet, jpcima, MatFluor, PaulFd and sfw. This website is an opensource non profit project, I hope to see more people involved in the future to help make it grow.

Happy new year!
