Orgue de Salon (a house organ)
by Soni MusicaeUploaded on Aug 24, 2015 (and last updated on Aug 24, 2015)
We are pleased to present you the bank of a small house organ, 250 pipes, 5 real stops on two manuals (plus a coupled keyboard), built in 1988. It comes in soundfont and Kontakt 2 versions. If you are a user of Hauptwerk format, go to Soni Musicae / Hauptwerk.
At first, we did not want to distribute it, because this is not an extraordinary organ, and it was impossible to avoid a big noise of organ-blower during the recording : as it is a house organ, it stood in a flat, ...

Diato: a diatonic accordion
by Soni MusicaeUploaded on Aug 24, 2015 (and last updated on Aug 24, 2015)
Here is a sound bank of a small diatonic accordion, with 21 keys on two rows at the right hand, and 8 basses at the left, and a second stop that sounds lower. A diatonic accordion does not produce the same notes when you push or pull the bellows, and this makes this instrument not so easy to play... More, it has not all the semi-tones of its 3 octaves (from D2 to E5). With this sound bank, you can forget those drawbacks, because we have "interpolated" the missing notes, an...

The Grandfather's Clock
by Soni MusicaeUploaded on Aug 24, 2015 (and last updated on Aug 25, 2015)
This little soundbank gives you the grandfather's clock you ever dreamt of, and its true original tick-tack you need for suspense purpose. This clock has a special deep and heavy sound.
The sounds are organized on the keyboard as follows :
B2 : looped tick-tack as long as you press the key.
C3 to B3 : All the strokes from 1 to 12, 1 hour on C and 12 on B, with the noise of mechanism.
C4 to B4 : almost the same thing, but without the noise of mechanism.
VST Version:...

The Ghent Carillon
by Soni MusicaeUploaded on Aug 24, 2015 (and last updated on Dec 30, 2015)
This sf2 soundbank, called the Ghent Carillon, is made with free samples found on the following site: http://bimbam.be/EN/klokken.html
They are mono but good sounding, and respect the resonance of the 54 bells, from B flat to F, on 4 octaves. The samples have been converted from mp3 to wave, and regularly disposed in space from left to right, using the pan adjustment in the soundfont with Vienna Soundfont.
In this belfry, there are no bells for the B and the C sharp of t...

Extra considerations:
The soundfont was created by Soni Musicae but the samples are free and come from Ghent (Belgium) city's clock and were made available by a non-profit organization. The original site is now dead (but is linked here and can be accessed via Internet Archive) so most of the uses here should be okay.

RetroDrums One
by Tic Tok MenUploaded on Aug 24, 2015 (and last updated on Dec 23, 2015)
These are samples of old drum machines I've collected over the years. Not all recordings were done in house (but all are free use licenses).
The sample set consists of several drum machines (listed below). Each drum machines sounds are spread out over each octave from C1 to C7. There are, in some cases, sounds from some machines that have been grouped with others. This is because that machine had more then 12 sounds. But, the basic layout is the same on each.
C = Bass Dr...

Big Mono Drumkit
by Analogue DrumsUploaded on Aug 29, 2015 (and last updated on Mar 19, 2017)
This is a Hydrogen Drumkit made using the Big Mono drum samples from Analogue Drums. This file is hosted by Jeremy alias AutoStatic.
Original description from Analogue Drums
Big Mono is a roomy rendition of a lovable vintage Ludwig kit with a Rogers Dynasonic snare, classic Zildjians, and a Sabian ride for good luck. Recorded in mono using a decca-tree configuration supplemented with spot mics for detail, this kit sounds organic and retro with a spacious vibe.
Tracked t...

D. Smolken's multi-sampled double bass (aka contrabass)
by DSmolkenUploaded on Aug 29, 2015 (and last updated on Dec 27, 2015)
DSmolken at the KVR Audio Forum posted about sampling his acoustic double bass (aka contrabass) and how to best use the samples. Two primary sets of samples are provided - arco (that's bowed) and pizz (plucked) - with the addition of various "noises". If you check out his performance video, on YouTube, you might see what these might be used for... also the start of the demos below.
Arco is 5 velocity layers with 2 round robins, pizz is 3 velocity layers with 3-4 round rob...

I want it to be reusable including letting other people make better mappings, or an EQed and normalized version or whatever, and reuse it in other sample libraries.

WARNING! This pack was made inside oldest version of Helm, and this good synth is in active developing. Some patches could not sound the same and I've noticed dangerous volume levels using them in recent updates. Please, be careful and use them at your own risk.
