It should be fairly simple attempting to convert SoundFont 2 Sound Banks directly to WAVE Audio Files (.sf2 to .wav conversion), since many audio editors and (online) converters support such efforts.

Use a tool/converter, such as for instance Audacity or fre:ac, as these will allow you to export loaded SF2 sound bank files in WAV format.

SF2, or SoundFont 2, is a file format used to store audio samples and associated data for use in musical instruments and software synthesizers. It is commonly used in digital audio workstations and music production software to provide realistic instrument sounds.

WAV, or Waveform Audio File Format, is a standard audio file format used for storing waveform data. It is widely used for high-quality audio files and is compatible with most audio playback and editing software.

How to convert SF2 to WAV

Converting SF2 files to WAV format allows you to use the audio samples in a broader range of applications, including audio editing and playback software. The conversion process involves extracting the audio samples from the SF2 file and saving them as WAV files.
