I was not completely asleep until now though: http://gnupc.de/~zettberlin/law/samples/free/ but I will upload more stuff to these folders now, hope it will help. All files here are made my me from scratch(analogue source, microphone, editors) and I release them under a Creative Commons Attribution licence. So all derivatives, including commercial ones are permitted. Drop me a line, if you would prefer a different (free) license. I must admit, that I basicly hate the concept of soundfonts. Most of them try to mimic a real instrument but the real thing is still the real thing. Much different I consider the usage of samples in real sampler-apps like Specimen, that allow to manipulate how each sample should sound like. So you can build new sounds using samples. Such sounds are something genuine then and not just a puny copy of a real instrument. Soundfonts are just too compact and closed. But of course thats my personal opinion and I know, that many people use soundfonts to produce cool music(and I fear I would not recognize if there is a real Rhodes in a song or a carefully made up soundfont of a Rhodes ;-)). So go on - use my samples in your soundfonts, if you have a use for them. But maybe we could collaborate in making banks for Specimen too. There is just one stupid obstacle: Specimen stores the path to the wav-files allways as an absolute path and it refuses to read them from a relative path. So the banks are not easily to be transported/distributed. I use to adjust the path by hand in the bankfiles if needed but of course thats not acceptable for the normal user.... Still Specimen is a great app to work with samples and I wish, it would have more attention... THis one is made within aprx. 15 minutes from scratch with Specimen(playing my guitarsamples see above) and Seq24: http://gnupc.de/~zettberlin/law/demos/specibasse.ogg best egs HZN
