DiscoDSP – Bliss v3.25.0 for WiN

Bliss is a sampler that natively supports Akai, SFZ, SoundFont, Kontakt, EXS, Renoise, Nord, and ReCycle, and has expanded support thanks to integration with ConvertWithMoss. It can sample VST and AU plugins to SFZ losslessly, and the standalone version can sample external hardware and any audio source using automatic MIDI sampling. Up to 64 voices, SINC 128 interpolation, scalable GUI, built-in wave editor, seven effects with 8x oversampling, macro presets, and full MIDI control. See playback engine anti-aliasing comparison.

Audio: WAV, AIFF, FLAC, OGG, MP3. Sampling programs: Akai S1000/S3000 ISO, AKAI S5000-S6000 (AKP), AKAI XPM (Keygroup), EXS, SFZ, SoundFont 2 (SF2, SBK), sfArk, NKI (Kontakt 1-4), DecentSampler (dspreset, dslibrary), Renoise Instruments, ReCycle REX (RX2, REX, RCY), Nord Sample Library (NSMP, NSMP3, NSMP4) with Nord Sound Manager packs and backups, Buzz / ReBuzz BMX wavetables, tracker modules (MOD, XM, S3M, IT), CUE sheet.

SFZ import/export covers ampeg_attack/decay/sustain/release parameters with proper placement in the global section. Multi-file open automaps for drums and pitch zones.

Export: ZBP programs and ZBB banks (24-bit lossless FLAC), SFZ with extended opcodes in 16- or 24-bit format, Akai MPC Keygroup, Alesis SamplePad, ReCycle REX (RX2) with sample start and end points as sample boundaries, Nord Sample Library (NSMP, NSMP3, NSMP4) resampled to Nord frequency with nested loops and crossfades, MIDI files from samples and 16/24-bit WAV with loop points preserved.

Everything else goes through ConvertWithMoss: DLS, MPC, Korg, Kurzweil, EMU, Yamaha, and other formats are converted and loaded as a bank. Install it from the main menu; when opening a format that Bliss can’t read, it offers to load it.
