Roland SC-55 (Improved)
by EmperorGriefus and W. Duwindu Tharinda PereraUploaded on Oct 19, 2023
This was initially sampled by EmperorGriefus. Here, I have added some additional drum kits and drum sounds from SC-88/88pro/8820 plus the set of MT-32 patches the original SC-55 module was supposed to offer at Bank no.127. I made several additional tweaks to lower the file size by noticing actual loop points heard in longer samples. The modulation effects lost in this trimming process are then recovered by doing the math at parameter sections with reference to Roland's ori...

"Real Drum" GM Mapped
by W. Duwindu Tharinda PereraUploaded on Nov 05, 2023
The soundfont was sampled using some websites/web apps that offer an animated drumset with different arrangements of key controls to play the kick, hats, snare, toms and cymbals. I'm so slow to adapt these custom maps, so I decided to slap the samples to the classic GM/GS drum map and finally layered the rest of percussion. Not only that but also I added a missing China cymbal from Milton Paredes' Just T4, which kinda fits neat with it.
Korg X5 Drums (SF2)

Props to BrianFan The Hedgehog for suggesting me this!
Just like the JV-1080 Drums, this soundfont also is a compilation from some other set of soundboard.com samples. Maybe it's some Room ambiance or a mysterious DSP Reverb or EQ left applied while the source samples were being recorded (before the author uploaded it to the relevant website) they doesn't sound perfectly neutral for me. It's up to you to decide whether or not apply an EQ treatment here. I'm more of a Rola...
Yamaha XG Soundset
by Duwindu TharindaUploaded on Jun 04, 2021
I just found this from a site named hexawe.net. As an sf2 file, this has such a speciality that my Polyphone SoundFont editor can't specify the actual instrument preset numbers since those are located in LSB Slots rather than traditional MSB slots in Roland GS Architecture. The major downside is though, those presets don't work even though a MIDI file contain CC#32 messages on it in such cases like Coolsoft VirtualMIDISynth and even in Falcosoft player.
I tried to enhance...
