Hello,
Is it possible to load a sound font, .sf2, file in Reaper?
Thanks.

It is, of coourse. I'm attaching a zip that you need to load the soundfont in. Extract this folder and put it in your reaper plugins.

I also grabbed the sound font they had linked in the readme.

Caution: in Reaper's program folder it says not to put plug-ins here, so to play it safe I put it in roaming, reaper user plugins. I hope that's right.

Sorry for multiple posts but yuck, the soundfont linked is mono, ugh! I'm not keeping it!

I still don't know where to put that folder. The readme says it needs to be in the same folder as basmidi.dll or something. I have no idea where that is in Reaper.

I installed it, now how do I get it to play in Reaper?
