NEW! Mother 3 Soundfont 2023 Update (1.0)
by Shigisato Itoi & NintendoUploaded on Jan 02, 2023 (and last updated on May 18, 2024)
Happy New Year everyone! And what a new year indeed as it has been 7(!) years since fluidvolt released his Mother 3 soundfont to the world. And in that time many individuals have made a lotta amazing tracks with it. And while his soundfont was usable and useful at the time, I think it could definitely use a bit of an update since then. Namely in reorganizing the instruments to be a bit more GM compliant, renaming instruments to be a bit more recognizable and touching up so...

Magic Castle (PS1) Soundfont
by SodichiUploaded on Feb 11, 2021 (and last updated on Feb 18, 2021)
2/17/20 UPDATE - I've merged the Cello sample into the Strings patch after finding out it is included with the Strings according to the original "Main Theme" track. As well, I've also taken the liberty to make a separate soundfont file that retains the original pitches that it had in-game. So now if you want to make accurate rips, you can!
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
The instruments and sound effects from the (once lost) PS1 game Magic Castle compiled into a usable soundfont!

CWBF's Emma kit
by Colin WB FoleyUploaded on Apr 22, 2020 (and last updated on Apr 22, 2020)
I hired a fantastic drummer on Fiverr to record drums for an album, and paid him to also record some samples of his kit. I mixed the samples, chopped them up, and added in some other percussion he recorded for me. I made this for my own usage, so it may be a little idiosyncratic, but hopefully you can get some mileage out of it too. I bought the rights to all the recordings he made, so thankfully I can release this one for free to all of you. The samples are WAV files, 48 ...

Slender Salamander Grand Piano (44 kHz 16 bit)
by Alexander Holm / Signal ExperimentsUploaded on Nov 11, 2017 (and last updated on May 19, 2024)
A phase aligned version of the famous Salamander Grand Piano. Using velocity crossfading to simulate intermediate velocity layers, the original gigabyte library has been reduced to 389 MB (238 for the 44.1kHz version). From the original 16 velocity layers, 3 were selected then phase aligned. Furthermore, the SFZ library has also been re-tuned using the Entropy Piano Tuner.

Hi! Have you ever wanted to write your own music with the sounds of Mother 3? Well today's your lucky-- What? Say that again? You don't even know how this file ended up on your computer? Oh. That's... kinda scary. It's like a high-tech ghost story. Hm.

Well, wanna have a go at it anyway?
Oh! Before I forget, I wrote an album of 12 original songs, using only this soundfont. The album's called Clay Memory. Take a listen to hear this soundfont in action: https://flui...

Mellowtron

The infamous "string machine" used throughout the late 60s and early 70s. Not samples of a real one, but rather a stereo facsimile. I call it the "mellowtron".

Introduction
This is a synthesized Soundfont, made specifically for Soundfont-based soundcards. Most preferably, the SBLive!
The Gameboy waveforms consist of small-wave-use, to make strange-like sounds. In this case, Gameboy-rather.
My source is included, in case you want to continue it from the version you used last. It's in Audio Compositor format the source, so keep in mind, that if you run AC with it, make sure to map the wave files required, to the sample library. :...
