Configure an Instrument
Setting the maximum amount of
cache memory for SoundFont files
does not mean setting aside or
reserving the space. The space can
still be used by your computer or
other files, if needed.
4-8 Using Sound Blaster Live!
When you clear a SoundFont file, you remove the latest configuration of the main bank and any
variation banks, including the latest configuration of instruments on the Configure Instrument
tabbed page.
To configure an instrument:
1. In the SoundFont dialog box, click the
Configure Instrument tab.
2. In the Select Bank list, select the bank
whose instruments you want to configure.
You can select any bank.
3. In the Select Instrument list, select the
instrument to configure.
In the Instrument Stack, you may see an
instrument entry although you did not load
an instrument on this page. The instrument
can be found in a bank loaded on the
Configure Bank tabbed page.
4. Click the Load button and load a
SoundFont or single-instrument (for
example, .WAV) file.
The last file loaded always appears at the top of the Instrument Stack with an arrow
pointing to it.
5. To clear an instrument from the stack, select the instrument and then click the Clear button.
6. For faster processing of SoundFont files, the files are loaded into memory. You need to set
the maximum amount of cache memory your SoundFont files can occupy, so that your
system performance does not suffer from insufficient memory. You can also set the caching
algorithm for a balanced system performance.
