Incidentally, that's also not how copyright works, especially with samples in a musical product like a keyboard.Īll of these sounds are completely free to use for derivative works, they are specifically licensed to be so. In most cases actions like these must be treated with a "Cease and desist" order prior to attempting trial. Breach of copyright in this particular case isn't a crime or a felony, but might be grounds for a civil plaint which is highly unlikely in this case. > you can safely assume that this sounfont is totally illegal Here is the video where he comments, look in the comments below
If you could elaborate a little more, I can give you a more specific answer to your question. So for licensing, I would say fair use and commercial would not be out of the question, just please give credit where it is due is all I ask. Most of the presets are from free soundfonts I have collected over the years. As for my soundfont, some of the samples are from hardware, such as the Korg Triton, Sound Canvas, and the Roland FA-06. As far as licensing, do you mean the song itself or the soundfont? If the song, the original composer would be the one the ask about that (and likely impossible to find). Thank you and your welcome about the compiling.
Do you have any information about the licensing of this soundfont? Jeffrey Baitis11 months Simon, this is really great. Rick Simon said in a comment on one of his youtube videos that most of the presets in his OmegaGMGS2.sf2 soundfont are samples from other free soundfonts he found on the internet, but he also said that some of the samples he used were from his hardware synths like his Korg and his Roland FA, so you can safely assume that this sounfont is totally illegal. If you use it to make a soundfont, or for productions, please give credit to me, Rick Simon.

The soundfont has a lot of time, heart, and trial and error invested. I will let you judge for yourself.Īll I ask: Please give credit where it is due.

To check out my Youtube videos featuring OmegaGMGS2: įor my SoundCloud (featuring a lot of midi files using OmegaGMGS2: Īnd finally, to download OmegaGMGS2, go here: Ĭompare this to any soundfonts you own or that are available and please let me know what you think. 45 Drum Kits (including Yamaha XG and Roland GS sets) GM, GM2, Yamaha XG, and Roland GS compatible (can playback any midi song in these formats!) I am offering my soundfont to pletely free of charge! I made it back in 2001 and have updated it periodically over the years. So I made my own custom soundfont, OmegaGMGS2. Mish-moshed presets that sound good individually at times, but horrible in a mix. Soundfonts are only GM compatible, so Roland GS, Yamaha XG, or General Midi 2 songs will not playback correctly. I have every free bank that is available and have tried free and commercial soundfonts. Some sound amazing on certain instruments, but horrible on others. I, like many others, love midi songs but have always thought soundfonts were a mixed bag.
