sfizz VS guitarix

Check out sfizz https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz . On the right side bar of their website, there are links to find instrument libraries ( E.G. drumkits, piano, etc) https://sfz.tools/sfizz/ ,

From https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz"Sfizz can be used most easily within an LV2 host such as Carla or Ardour.",

sfizz (https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz), which loads sfz multisamples and is open source, comes as vst3 plugin, and it can be installed in manjaro, but I haven't been able to use it in bitwig yet.

You could install a VST (like sfizz) and whatever soundfonts you'd like to use (Musical Artifacts is a great site to find some), then pull up the VST to switch instruments.

So I'm trying to migrate to Linux and want to use the VSCO Community Orchestra Pack. On the site it recommends using sfizz to load the files. So, I've gone to their website, installed as the sfizz website instructed... But there's nothing? Nothing in LMMS or anything showing up on my system. I'm assuming there's some piece of software I'm missing here.

Sfizz. Supports SFZ format, which is the pretty popular among hobbyists.

sfizz and decent sampler (for SFZ and other sampled instruments)
