Viena 0.999 Purge Problem
Posted: Mon Oct 23, 2017 8:24 pm
Kenneth,
I am back to making samples and a new soundfont, and I'm afraid I have to report that Viena 0.999 is sometimes (not always) corrupting the samples after purging and then saving. It's not a consistent behaviour. It's just like what was happening with some of its recent predecessors.
I have taken to doing my main work with 0.999, which is always with a single preset (often with two instruments), and I am having no problems. But when I add the developing preset to the main soundfont by deleting the previous version of the preset, doing a purge, then copy the new version of the preset, and then save - that's when I sometimes discover the problem. So for this final step of adding etc., I use an old version of Viena, which behaves itself totally.
