LiLVintage Soundfont
by Thomas K.Uploaded on May 10, 2020 (and last updated on Sep 01, 2020)
This is the LiLVintage Soundfont: a mixture of various individual instrument patches, spiced up with a few GUS and a lot of GUS PPL 1.61 patches for the retro vibes, as well as with hand-picked choices from "RealSound GS 2.0" and "GM2 Map Soundfont" patches, and it comes with the Utopia Soundbank's drumsets. So it's quite the mixture. Basically I aimed for a more 'palatable' GUS PPL based soundfont.
NOTE: There are two editions for this soundfont. The difference for the s...

These files have an unknown license, were obtained from unkown sources or were compiled from third party material.
Extra considerations:
Since the soundfont uses some GUS patches and some unknown sources for some patches (obtained through the net long ago), I'd say it can be used for free purposes, but not commercially.

Default Windows MIDI Soundfont
by Roland / Microsoft CorporationUploaded on Mar 17, 2019 (and last updated on Mar 18, 2019)
Have you ever wanted the cheesy-sounding MIDI instruments that's been bundled with every Microsoft operating system since 1996? Now you can, no matter what platform you're on! Now you can mix general MIDI instruments with whatever-the-hell else you have in your soundfont folder.gm.dls ripped straight from System32 and converted to sf2.

Extra considerations:
The following license file can be found in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers. Its validity is unknown due to its long-expired copyright. But honestly, so many songs already use the default MIDI anyways just from using MIDI OUT, I highly doubt anyone will chase you down over it.
