おすすめです
iOS/macOSには他にもMIDIプレーヤーアプリが多数ありますが、このKQさんのSampeiが一番機能が充実してます。
XG対応のsf2ファイル(SGMなど)をインポートして、昔ヤマハのショップで買った古いSMFを鳴らしていますMidRadioPlayerが終了しましたが、Sampeiで代用できそうです。
（トラックのソロボタンが見当たりませんが、ぜひ実装をお願いします🙏 →追記: ミュートアイコンを長押しでソロに切り替えられました）
まだmacOSネイティブアプリではない模様ですが、MacのLogicでAUとして立ち上げて問題なく使えています。

Thanks for the $2.00 update
If you own the original KQ Sampei (now KQ Sampei Legacy) make sure to go to the bundle to upgrade for $2.00 rather than spending another $9.99 for KQ Sampei 26.

ボイスオーバーサウンドフォント読み込み何故か不可
Klasse!
Viele, sehr gute Sounds (Instrumente) enthalten.
Und das bei dieser unglaublich kleinen App größer?

スマートフォンでmidiが聴けるなんて……
感動です。midiプレイヤーとしての使用(iPad&iPhone)のみですが、美しいサウンドフォント、鍵盤表示や見やすく分かりやすい設定等、言う事なしです。ありがとうございます！
建议连接电钢琴使用
很好的sf2加载器
Awesome
Awesome yet very simple… love it
Need a record button and zoom in and zoom out
This app is amazing it has 128 keys and it can handle black midi’s! It is very cool.But the problem is It should have a record button and zoom in and out for the keys please add those features It will be very nice but this app it is worth buying it.
Very good
Best SoundFont Player i found so far
Best au3 for soundfont afficionados
Good organisation of libraries, very good GUI.
Loading it in Drambo with a blue theme, you don’t even recognise it as a plugin. Feels like it was designed as part of the program from the get-go.
Very cool!
To the dev: ever thought about making a no-nonsense beatslicer for wav/rx2 files? A good simple slicer with good beat detection is about as hard to find as a good soundfont player was…. before you released this one.

Great companion app to the MIDIREC app
The Ryouta Kira MIDI music apps are great. We use them on our iPhones, iPads, and iPad Pros. We would also love to be able to buy them for our Apple-silicon Macs.
The apps are highly recommended to music contacts and sound system integration clients. They have also enabled a variety of church music that was difficult to provide in the past with excessively complex music production software.
For KQ Sampei app, we would like full persistence in settings between app uses. Currently, when the app is shut down or running in the background, the user interface shows that all settings for pan, expression, chorus, and V.Delay have been reset.
Some day a merging of the music curation features of MIDIREC, and app keyboard that provides MIDI-Out from the app with the existing KQ Sampei would also be greatly appreciated.

Response from developer
Thanks for the five-star rating. I don't have an Apple-silicon Mac, so support for Mac has not yet been determined. And KQ Sampei can avoid from resetting. Resetting occurs when starting playing MIDI files. Not when re-opening the app. And your MIDI files might include some parameter changes and reset signals. To keep your parameters, use filter function. Open MIDI > Filter and turn off Rx Sampei Reset, GM1 System On, GM2 System On, GS Reset and XG System On. You may also want to turn off Rx Continuous Controller or NRPN (GS), Panpot, Expression, and so on. Expression is not a persistent parameter. Use volume instead.
Stonking. Mega, does a simple great thing.
KQ Sampei was languishing around the middle of the alphabetical list of my AU plugins, neglected, when I decided to try and use more orchestral sounds. Looking for a flute in particular, especially in GarageBand on my iPad Pro, a few options turned up, like other soundfont players (same soundfonts get handed round!), the actual Apple GB flute, etc. Then I found, that as often is the case, faking it is sometimes better than direct approach.
So here is the single great USP of this for me: up to four parts/soundfont instruments can play simultaneously, and there are some basic effects like reverb, chorus etc, you can add directly inside KQ Sampei. So I combined the ‘pan pipe’ type sound, plus the flute one, and got a pretty good approximation of a ‘breath-ey flute’. That’s what I mean by fake it. It sounds lieka flute but one with the recorded breath of the player cranked up.
Now I realise the trick is not to combine a trombone with a bass drum (!), but to marry up a couple of quite similar instruments/soundfonts quit often, then use KQ Sampei’s individual layer/instrument gain adjustments, to get the mix right, to often come out as if a single instrument but simply with certain ‘characteristics’ amplified, quite literally.
And, GB of course only allows 32 tracks, which was not a limit with my old iPad Pro 2 in practice, because it ran into issues long before you had a complicated 32-track with FX piece, but now with a used purchase this year of a massively-discounted iPad Pro M1 of 2Tb SSD (thank you for inventing the M2 Apple), this is a useful Audio Unit that avoids the complexity of layering-up using the scarce resource of two tracks with other single-instrument soundfont players.
Add in any palaver with wanting mono and stereo control to the max, and you are talking 6 tracks if there is a specific layering of sound you are determined to have, and maybe slide around in stereo inside of Apple’s baby DAW on iOS/iPadOS.
So just like that, KQ Sampei has suddenly become a highly-rated Audio Unit for me, easily 5-stars. Obviously, I am now off to try combining say a trombone and a trumpet, or the lower end of a harp and a bass guitar (I am not sure if you can set the octaves of the individual soundfont instruments to be different while playing live?). It’s actually a great way to squeeze a bit more out of those 32 tracks in GB (or resources in Cubasis etc of course), and is now 5-star for me. PS I also did obtain other soundfont files to try, but actually it’s hard to beat the originals at this time.

KQチーム
最初は「KQさんからGM音源????」と不思議でしたが、今ではKQさんの音だけで曲を作れるようになったことを相当喜んでます。DAW、KQ Sampei、KQ Dixie、KQ MiniSynthを立ち上げて、全てVirtual MIDIで繋いで使ってます。軽い、音良い、で言うことなしです。
Very good SF manager/ player
I got this as a replacement for the ageing Bismark, and it has a lot to offer. At first I couldn’t work out why Sf fonts were not showing up in AU3 mode, but the dev kindly explained they need to be activated via in-app manager. (-: So far so good, nicely stable and well worth buying!
Van Glorious!
This app is phenomenal. Very efficient way to get your “Kontakt” on in ipad land. Very stable launch version so far. Highly recommend this app if you love big sounds and exploring new ways to blend them. Bravo!
