I was more think along the lines of community effort.
We, the users,
should be able to help ourselves by helping each other.
Agreed, and I found this community to be the one of the more civilized
places on earth....
So... I throw out the question about a centralized
sound-patch repository.
What if we provided a site similar to e.g. themes.org? Interested
parties should there be able to upload patches and associate them with
the synth they are made for. This should then be published on a
searchable web.
We've talked before about application databases ala freshmeat, this
could be a part in such an endevour.
I think that Darren with his OMRL project plans to do something like
this, there has been a long thread some week ago on this list. He
began with the idea of a free/open sample-loop library but IIRC there
were also talks about softsynth patches.
And, if I could add my 2 cents, I think it would be great to have also
MIDI loops (particulary drum loops) and soundfonts.
It may very well be that we as a community are still
to small to support
things like this, but I'd like to think we have reached critical mass.
Yeah! we're on the road to world domination!
Regards,
Robert
