Marcus Clef has released ROM-500, a SF2 player with custom loops made with Synthedit.
ROM-500 uses MIDI files to play SF2 loops, in a similar way as REX files, so it supports tempo variations. This lets you create totally new loops from the original.
R0M-500 features
- Multiple instances VST Instument
- 170 Mb SF2 with various loops (169 Loops @ 96 to 160 BPM)
- 169 MIDI files
- 2 ADSR Env for Filter and Amp stages
- 1 Moog type Lo-pass filter, with adjustable Cutoff and Resonance
- Master gain adjustment
- Warm function for boost and distortion on signal
- Automation of parameters
- No latency
- Intuitive GUI
- You can load your own soundfonts
You can get ROM-500 at Rapidshare or palebluedot.ca.
A REX 2 version is also available at Rapidshare as well as a light version which only includes the plug-in.
Note: The plug-in’s presets expect the soundfont file in a specific location, read the comments below if you’re having trouble getting it to play.
Update 24-04-2007: Since the plug-in is not available anymore from the links above you can download it from rekkerd.org. (download size: 94MB)
If you have any feedback you can contact Marcus at: rimshot1 AT hotmail DOT com

Thx very much , and probably I’ll choose solution one.
Thx AGAIN !

I get this popup when loading ROM-500, so I make those folders on my drive and move the ROM-500 sf2 file to that location. I think this problem occurs because the presets have the path to the sf2 file included.
What you could also do is just load the plug-in, close the error message and use the load button (see here) to open the sf2 file manually. That works for me as well.
thx very mch , but my problem is “plugin doesn
I’ve asked Marcus if he still has it somewhere.
In the meantime you can get it here.
Hi. I can’t find the right place to SFZ file ,can somebody help ?
If this plug-in doesn’t load properly you might need to move the SFZ file to another folder where ROM-500 expects it.
This plug-in is also quite CPU intensive, so use with caution.
