I've spent almost 2 months making this version and making a bunch of well changes to this soundfont to achieve a better MIDI listening experience. I've removed many sounds from CrisisGeneralMidi3.01 and other bland samples and such and made this sound...

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 ...

HiDef (my 4GiB Roland SC-88Pro SoundFont)
by stgiga, et. al. (check my Weebly)Uploaded on Dec 05, 2022 (and last updated on Oct 20, 2023)

It was a pain to make and often involved using ...
