musescore-general-soundfont 0.2.1-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

musescore-general-soundfont (0.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release
    - 000:058 Tuba: Extended top of sounding range since the Tuba preset
      is used for the bugles and euphonium in MuseScore. In doing so, I
      have also generated new samples ("Tuba B6", "Tuba F6") for a better
      sound in the upper range. Fixes: https://musescore.org/en/node/314547
      and https://musescore.org/en/node/324917
    - 000:090 Polysynth; 017:090 Polysynth Expr.:
      Tweaked velocity and filter response
    - 010:115 Metronome; 128:55 Metronome: Added, featuring two pairs of
      metronome sounds. MuseScore’s metronome sound is not produced by the
      synth engine and therefore it is not possible to render to an audio
      file as many have requested (cf. https://musescore.org/en/node/154666
      and https://musescore.org/en/node/320431). As a workaround, you can
      create a percussion staff (simplest way is to add “Wood Blocks” to
      the score) and assign it to the “Metronome” preset in the mixer.
      See the README for more information on this.
  * Bump Policy (no change)
  * Update all other files accordingly

musescore-general-soundfont: General SoundFont from MuseScore (HQ version, lossy)

 This is the HQ version for the new standard hard disc space-saving
 SF3 format soundfont as shipped with MuseScore 2.2 and newer.
 .
 This release of the soundfont supports Single-Note Dynamics with
 MuseScore 3.2 and higher.
 .
 MuseScore_General_HQ aims at providing the best audio quality and
 soundfont programming features, while being a compatible drop-in
 replacement for the less heavyweight MuseScore_General soundfont,
 providing the complete GM (General MIDI) sound set, with separate
 ensemble samples for several instruments, and some extras.
 .
 It can be used with most modern MIDI synthesisers which support
 the SF3 format, although early implementations (such as the one
 from MuseScore before release 2.2) had bugs making the resulting
 sound bad; instead use fluidr3mono-gm-soundfont for those.
 .
 As it comes under the MIT licence, it can be used in most settings,
 but do remember that waveforms generated using this soundfont are
 “copies or substantial portions of the” soundfont. It is sufficient
 to reproduce the licence and copyright notice in any “associated
 documentation files” provided with your generated waveforms.
 .
 The musescore-general-soundfont-small package contains the normal
 soundfont (as shipped with MuseScore 3.x), lossily SF3 compressed.
 The musescore-general-soundfont package similarly provides the
 HQ version of the soundfont (with separate ensembles instruments
 and other large improvements) as SF3, whereas the SF2 HQ version
 is packaged as musescore-general-soundfont-lossless for use with
 synthesisers lacking SF3 support, by audiophiles, and to avoid
 long MuseScore startup times; however with a large disc footprint.
 .
 This package will be installed into /usr/share/sounds/sf3/ which
 is the standard Debian location for system-wide SF3 soundfonts.

musescore-general-soundfont-lossless: General SoundFont from MuseScore (uncompressed)

 This is the HQ version for the new standard soundfont of MuseScore 2.2
 and newer, in uncompressed SF2 format. It has a significantly larger
 disc footprint than its corresponding SF3, but is identical other than
 not compressing the samples with a lossy algorithm. This avoids audible
 Vorbis artefacts and the excessively long MuseScore startup time with
 compressed soundfonts and can be used by SF3-incompatible synthesisers.
 .
 This release of the soundfont supports Single-Note Dynamics with
 MuseScore 3.2 and higher.

 soundfont programming features, while being a compatible drop-in
 replacement for the less heavyweight MuseScore_General soundfont,
 providing the complete GM (General MIDI) sound set, with separate
 ensemble samples for several instruments, and some extras.
 .
 It can be used with almost all MIDI synthesisers (with SoundFont 2.01
 support) although bugs in early implementations (e.g. MuseScore before
 version 2.2) cause sound degradation. (Install fluidr3mono-gm-soundfont
 which has a compatible instrument assignment for those it supports.)
