Hi @Audiomodern Can Soundbox, import the N.I kontakt format? I read somewhere this might be possible. Did it make it in the release?

Importing the N.I. Kontakt format was an optional feature rather than a highly requested one. However, if more developers and creators request it, we will consider implementing it.

A big YES PLEASE!!

Especially now Kontakt is becoming a very bloated mess there’s a need for a more streamlined alternative.

Not only for creating and sharing, but also for converting and using existing libraries owned.

Hi, We’ve received a few requests for SFZ support, and we’ll definitely consider adding it in the future.

SFZ file format is not easy task!

it contains very many attributes and opcodes!

See here;

> **[Home - SFZ Format](https://sfzformat.com/)**

but it’s very powerful format with nice features like keyswitches, release samples,

sustain pedal up and down samples ,for example pianos!
