Stereo Rock Guitars (No Loop)
by DainduneUploaded on Feb 23, 2024 (and last updated on Feb 24, 2024)
This is probably the best overdriven and distorted electric guitar soundfont. The samples are recorded from Soundtrap, and the Classic Dist, and Overdrive effects have been added to a clean sounding electric guitar.
Samples are stereo, but they are unfortunately not looped.
if someone could loop these samples, I would appreciate it.
Feel free to use these guitars in any of your soundfonts, and yes, they are General MIDI compatible.
LG G5400 SoundFont (aka Casio Mobile, OKI ML2870)
by © OKI, Casio, 2003;Uploaded on Dec 31, 2023 (and last updated on Jan 26, 2024)
fully restored soundfont on the base OKI ML2870 from the old phone LG C1400/G5400/G7100 and PANTECH G200 and OLD Philips phones (favorite phones of childhood, and we thought it sounded like on the computer - Roland).
now sounds about 90% accurate
(For those who don't understand, I'll add here: this soundfont is a REPLICA of several others, similar in sound.)
The Ultimate STAIN+stin SoundFont
by stgiga, High CPU/stin, TEMMISUploaded on Nov 23, 2023 (and last updated on Apr 17, 2024)
I'm stgiga, and this SoundFont is my build of The Stain SoundFont, which includes patches even back to V1.0 that were left unused, or in some cases sample-only. It also includes replaced and added patches. I left all names unaltered for preservation. I also integrated the stin bank into the MSB127 MT32 compatibility slot. Don't take this SF2 as a representation of the stuff I do.
Also, the site is slow so tagging is a huge pain compared to usual. I'm likely not going to b...
Apollo GMGS v1.105 (GM+GS soundfont)
by CaedUploaded on Aug 22, 2023 (and last updated on May 04, 2024)
This soundfont, which is 3.97 GB, is meant to be a high quality, high-end, and a decently balanced soundfont with decent sounds and a decent MIDI-listening experience.
I took many feedback and such into consideration for this version of this soundfont, and make adjustments based on that to make this soundfont better than the previous versions.
NOTE: I renamed this soundfont from "Caed's Ultimate Adequate GM" to "Apollo GMGS" as I thought the previous name was vague. It ...

Musescore General HQ Soundfont (.sf2 Converted)
by Frank Wen, Michael Cowgill, S. Christian CollinsUploaded on Jun 13, 2023 (and last updated on Jun 19, 2023)
The reason I published this here on Musical Artifacts is because it was originally an .sf3 file and .sf3's are compatible with such a small amount of things. The way I converted the thing was using Polyphone. I just loaded it, hit 'Save As...' and chose .sf2. It sounds just like the original with not much loss and I'm pretty happy with it. If you like the sound of the Musescore soundfont and want to use it with some other software (e.g. VLC Media Player). To summarize, I p...

Ask and you shall receive: A GM SoundFont by me, stgiga, of those musical calculators that was turned into an incomplete and non-GM SoundFont by evnchn on Github, but now including a drumkit (the Controller Click from Marcel J. Therrien's Gamer's Orchestra to represent calculator keypresses), and SFX (Pencil from JS121's SFX, to fit the math theme.)

Caed's Ultimate Adequate GM version 1.01
by CaedUploaded on Apr 14, 2023 (and last updated on Aug 22, 2023)
Over the past few months, I've been working on this GM soundfont that has 147 presets that is 4.27 GB. I will add more presets soon, GS and XG presets soon, but they in separate soundfonts since Polyphone will corrupt the soundfont after it reaches 4.3 GB. This might be one of the largest soundfonts in MIDI history in just 1 soundfont with about 13,000 samples, surpassing the amounts of samples in DSoundfont Ultimate by about 2,000!
This soundfont contains some instruments...
