Local Edition Download

SpessaSynth: Local Edition comes with easier soundfont management than the demo version, also allowing to use it offline! You can download it here.

[!IMPORTANT] Firefox is recommended due to Chromium’s 4GB memory limit. A decent computer is also recommended for high-polyphony sound banks.

Recommended high-quality SoundFont for Local Edition

Building from source

# clone
git clone "https://github.com/spessasus/SpessaSynth" --depth 1
# install dependencies
npm i
# build and start the local edition
npm start

The “start” will automatically build the script and then invoke server.js. Then it will only invoke server.js so you need to npm run build to rebuild.

The build files:

• dist: the online demo along with the bundled Local edition ZIP for downloading. This is what’s hosted on GH pages.
• local-dev: Local Edition sources with sourcemaps. For development.
• server: the Local Edition server. It is here so it can use the root “soundfonts” folder. This is what npm start invokes.
