Vibrato and modulation

  I have a question about using vibrato (and other modulation stuff) in Polyphone.
  
  When I add vibrato to an instrument or a preset in Polyphone, it seem to work fine. But if I load my soundfont in a Sf2-player, I hear no vibrato. The only way to get the right sound, is export the soundfont as a SFZ-file and play it with Plogue Sforzando. But I prefer using it as a Sf2. Am I doing something wrong? Or is the Sf2-format not suitable for vibrato and other modulators?

  The sound engine embedded in Polyphone should reproduce accurately the sound of the presets except for the modulators defined here: https://www.polyphone.io/o/documentation…editor#doc_modulator (this has not been implemented yet).
  You may check with FluidSynth (Swami is using it) if the vibrato is right, I consider this software as a reference.
  If only the other sf2-player provides no vibrato, you may send them a bug report.

  The problem might be solved! My soundfont player (Phenome) seems not being able to play vibrato and other modulations. Neither does Saffron Soundfontplayer. RGC Audio SFZ(+) and Jeskola XS-1 do te job right.

  Did you mean "software vibrato" or specific samples used for vibrato separately?

  Hi Alex C!
  
  I mean the vibrato options you can edit in Polyphone's instrument or preset screen, like "Vib LFO Delay", "Vib LFO freq" and "Vib LFO pitch".
