For Windows version, this package is tested on Windows 10. This package is currently being tested on Windows, Linux and macOS. This sf2 loader is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit python versions, for python >= 3.6, so be sure your installed python version match the requirements for this package to use. However, I still recommend you to learn about musicpy, even not to consider music programming and analysis, it could also be very useful for midi files editing and reconstructing. If you are not familiar with musicpy data structures and is not willing to learn it in recent times, you can also straightly using midi files as input to the sf2 loader, and export the rendered audio files using the loaded soundfont files. In fact, this project borns with my attempt at making muscipy's sampler module being able to load soundfont files to play and export audio files. Besides of playing music with the loaded soundfonts files, I also write an audio renderer in the sf2 loader, which could render the audio from the loaded soundfont files with the input musicpy data structures and output as audio files, you can choose the output format, such as wav, mp3, ogg, and output file names, sample width, frame rate, channels and so on.

This is probably the most handy soundfont loader, player and renderer via pure programming at the time I am writing now (9).
