Windows-style backslashes in default_path and relative sample paths break or are unreliable on Linux and macOS SFZ engines. Forward slashes are accepted on all common platforms when the WAV folders sit next to the SFZ as distributed. Co-authored-by: endolith <endolith@gmail.com>

Summary
All
.sfzfiles used Windows-style backslashes indefault_pathand in Snare2’s nestedsample=paths. Many SFZ players on Linux and macOS treat those literally and fail to load WAVs next to the instrument.Changes
\with/in every affecteddefault_pathandsample=line (13 instruments).Toms.sfzwas unchanged (includes only; no path separators).Notes
The readme still mentions velocity transitions as a known limitation; that is an artistic/tuning concern, not addressed here.
