This is the final update of my soundfont. I decided not to continue with the updates and leave it as is.
I started this project in late 2019, originally for personal use, and then i published it in 2020 as "JexuGMGSMT" in a CoolSoft thread, and in May i gave it the name of "Phoenix". Since then, every year the soundfont received minor updates. The major update came in 2023 with the version 2.0, with entirely new sounds, but keeping the features that make it unique, like the cheezy sound and the cymbal choke. I was working on that version, after having released the version 1.5 in 2022. The 2.0 was going to have his XG version, but when was on the way, strangely the soundfont has broken, and the samples has mixed. Because of that, XG version is cancelled on this new version.
My soundfont didn't have the expected reception, and i'm not really happy with the result anyway. I wanted to make a soundfont with good sound but with light file size. But is hard to get that balance, every time i update, the size gets big, the soundfont originally weighed 45mb, now it weighs almost 300mb. It's better to leave it like this, before it becomes 1gb. If someone discovers this, i hope they enjoy it...
