These are some of the early soundfonts that I created and posted in the Auditorium or at AudioShots, posted here so you can still access them.

The Harmonica SoundFont in SF2 format is a sampled Koch Chromatic ‘C’, it is layered and velocity sensitive. 

It has been spread across the keyboard so you can benefit from playing out of the normal octave range that the Koch is capable of.

The Recorder SoundFont in SF2 format is a sampled Recorder, it is layered and velocity sensitive. 

It has been spread across the keyboard so you can benefit from playing out of the normal octave range that the recorder is capable of – best played within the range and a little above and below imo. Try this with a small amount of reverb.

The Drill SoundFont in SF2 format is a sampled Electric Hammer Drill. 

In the font you will find one bank with 3 presets each containing a variation of the drill. Each has been layered and the keyboard range is A4 to D5 with up to 6 velocity depths and 36 layers. One preset is mainly high speeds, the other lower attacks and the third is the hammer drill groining into rock (mainly slow for better effect) some layers cross over each key others key range with the rock preset and responds well to velocity changes.

The Chanter SoundFont in SF2 format is a sampled Cocus Wood Chanter, but layered in such a way that it bears little similarity to the actual sound of the chanter, unless played in a single note fashion around B3 to D4, though many layers will get triggered (so that should smooth the experience) 

These chanters basically sound like a piece of grass being blown through cupped hands with quite a limited range of notes – they are used a lot to start people off on the road to learning the bagpipes (the chanter bit is the part that sticks out of the bottom of the bagpipe) – the wooden fatter chamber acts as a air reservoir with the intention to give an even flow over the reed – the idea of this font was to get the vibrations created by the reed to make a rather rustic sound. 

In the font you will find one bank with many layers to fatten out the sound, the release is slightly increased, sustain set, and spread across many octaves.
