The SFZ file format defines how samples are arranged for performance. The goal is to provide a free, simple, minimalist and expandable format to distribute and use audio samples with high quality and flexibility. Developers can create, use and distribute SFZ files for free.
SFZ is a plain text format storing instrument data for software synthesizers. The royalty-free SFZ format is widely accepted as an open standard to define instrument behavior from recordings.
SFZ files are powerful for creating instruments in your DAW. They allow opening, converting, and using samples.
The SFZ extension is for SoundFont Compressed Audio files. The format and SFzip program were developed by ACE. SFZ files likely were created with SFzip. Our tools: SFZ File Opener, Converter, Viewer and Editor.
Opcodes in SFZ files define values applied to regions, keyboard zones, pitch offsets and more. They define sample attributes like map locations for performance.
