      Loads an entire SoundFont2 (SF2) sample file into memory. These opcodes allow management the sample-structure of SF2 files. In order to understand the usage of these opcodes, the user must have some knowledge of the SF2 format, so a brief description of this format can be found in the <a class="link" href="MiscSf2.html" title="Appendix G. SoundFont2 File Format"><em class="citetitle">SoundFont2 File Format Appendix</em></a>.

        <h2>Performance</h2>
        <p>
      <span class="emphasis"><em>sfload</em></span> loads an entire SF2 file into memory. It returns a file handle to be used by other opcodes. Several instances of <span class="emphasis"><em>sfload</em></span> can placed in the header section of an orchestra, allowing use of more than one SF2 file in a single orchestra.
    </p>
        <p>
      These opcodes only support the sample structure of SF2 files. The modulator structure of the SoundFont2 format is not supported in Csound. Any modulation or processing to the sample data is left to the Csound user, bypassing all restrictions forced by the SF2 standard.
    </p>
        <p>
      It should be noted that before version 5.12 a maximum of 10
      sound fonts could be loaded, a restriction since relaxed.
