SF2 vst3 plugin for linux

AZSlow3s FluidSynthVST github page

To get this to work you need to download a gm soundfont, name default.sf2, and move it to the vst3 directory

  • 1st script downloads the plugin and moves it to the vst3 folder on linux
  • 2nd one downloads the Christian Collins GS soundfont, renames it to default.sf2 and moves it to the vst3 directory.

curl -L https://github.com/AZSlow3/FluidSynthVST/raw/master/bin/FluidSynthVST_Lin64.zip -o /tmp/FluidSynthVST_Lin64.zip && unzip -d /tmp/FluidSynthVST /tmp/FluidSynthVST_Lin64.zip && sudo mv /tmp/FluidSynthVST/* /usr/lib/vst3/

# Step 1: Download the file to a temporary location
wget -O /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471.zip 'https://www.dropbox.com/s/4x27l49kxcwamp5/GeneralUser_GS_1.471.zip?dl=1'

# Step 2: Unzip the file to a temporary directory
unzip /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471.zip -d /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471

# Step 3: Move and rename the .sf2 file to the desired location
sudo mv /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471/GeneralUser\ GS\ 1.471/GeneralUser\ GS\ v1.471.sf2 /usr/lib/vst3/default.sf2

# Step 4: Clean up temporary files
rm -rf /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471.zip /tmp/GeneralUser_GS_1.471
