![]() Geralt_of_Rivia: Hey, that's actually a good soundfont. Not quite as good as the old classic scc-1 but comes pretty close. Which is high praise for a free soundfont. Thanks for sharing. Maybe it depends on the games one tries, but I downloaded that soundfont and tried it with a couple of games (Tie Fighter intro music, Privateer intro music and flight music, and Dune 2), and frankly it sounded quite a bit poorer to me than e.g. Chorium Rev A (or Timbres of Heaven). I even started suspecting does this soundfont lack e.g. The extra GS drumsets and such which some General MIDI games support, as sometimes the drums seemed to lack some ooomph. Anyway as said it may also depend on the games one tries, so one needs to try them themselves. My favorites still are Chorium Rev A and Timbres of Heaven (99% of the time using Chorium, but I admit ToH has potential to sound better depending on the game/MIDI file). Timppu: Hmmm.

This is the ultimate list of free soundfonts for music producers. Take a trendy trip in time & rediscover amazing 90s sounds. Pianos, Orchestras & much more.

My favorites still are Chorium Rev A and Timbres of Heaven (99% of the time using Chorium, but I admit ToH has potential to sound better depending on the game/MIDI file). It always depends on the game. I tried the above soundfont with Duke3D and ROTT. To be honest I don't like Timbres or Chorium much. It's not that the instruments are bad by themselves but they are very badly balanced. There is always one or more instruments which sounds to low or too loud compared to the others. That's why my favorite is still the scc-1. It's hard to beat the soundfont most games were developed for after all. Timppu: Hmmm.
