NAME
       smsfimport - program to create SpectMorph models from SoundFont presets


SYNOPSIS
       smsfimport <command> <SoundFontFile> [OPTIONS] [<command specific
       args>...]


DESCRIPTION
       smsfimport can be used to convert SoundFont presets (.sf2 format) to
       SpectMorph instruments (.smset format). Since it does not implement all
       of the functionality provided by SoundFonts, the resulting files can
       sound different than the original SoundFont, and in some cases the
       import will fail completely.


OPTIONS
       smsfimport follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options
       starting with two dashes ('-').

       -h, --help
              Shows a brief help message.

       -v, --version
              Prints out smsfimport version.

COMMANDS
       list <SoundFontFile>
              Shows all presets contained in the SoundFontFile.

       dump <SoundFontFile> [ <PresetName> ]
              Displays a detailed view of the parameters specified for a
              preset (or for all presets).

       import <SoundFontFile> <PresetName>
              Imports a preset, creating a *.smset file. For preset "Grand
              Piano", the resulting output would be "grand_piano.smset".
