  1. Ah here we go, sorry about before as I don't come here much.

    Does anyone know where I might get some good voice samples? I'd like a middle eastern woman's voice, oohs, ahhs, and some humms. That heart of asia CD wasn't quite what I was looking for, but almost there. Thanks!

    I'm not sure of any other vocal libraries that exist for that sort of thing. You could try Vocal Planet..

    Some pretty decent choirs in soundfont format were just uploaded to sf2midi.com. For the most part they're high-quality albeit generic choir samples, though there are multiple vowel sounds and some pretty neat choir effects. If you have a fast connection it might not hurt to see if you can use them somehow. Filesizes range from 5MB to 30MB.

    There's also some Kurzweil Vocals on the site. I haven't checked these out personally though.

  2. Anyone know a good harpsichord soundfont?

    Apparently this never got answered, and I'm looking for one myself right now. (Search turned up nothing useful.)

    I'm a fan of Campbell's harpsichord soundfont. (hammersound) You could also try the one in Titanic SF, which is pretty good if I remember.

  3. The percussive section at http://hammersound.net should be able to get you hooked up with a good set from one of the many drumpacks there.

    Otherwise, search http://www.sf2midi.com for triangle. you'll probably get a whole bunch of GM sets. I recommend downloading Cadenza or Merlin if you don't have them already. I'm sure one of those has a decent triangle sound in the percussion. If you find it, you can just cut the instrument out using vienna.

  4. Just to alert everyone searching for decent samples that there is a new release of the Titanic Soundfont, now v1.2. It's slightly larger than the previous, with total unpacked size about 275MB. One of the largest and highest-quality GMGS sets available, this new revision features several reworked orchestral instruments (trumpets, violins, etc) as well as revised pads and synth leads.

    The font can be downloaded from http://www.titanicsf.com.

  5. ok, since no one seems to know where to find a wav file of kirby saying hi, does anyone know of where to find any kirby game sounds then? Or atleast a search engine or site that can find stuff like that? because ive heard a fair amount of mixes with sounds from the actual games, and i cant find any sites that have that sort of stuff.

    I think I can help you, BlueEnvy.

    This is an idea that I got. I haven't been able to test it (the audio cables I have aren't long enough), but in theory, it should work. You'll have to perform the rip directly from gamecube.

    You'll need Gamecube, SSBM, the TV, and a CD-recorder or cassette recorder (with line in).

    Step 1: Power up gamecube, with the component cables attached to the television. Attach two controllers.

    Step 2: Go to the options menu and further to the sound effects bar.

    Step 3: Find the sound effect that is the right Kirby one.

    Step 4: Disconnect the audio cables from the television. Attach them to the CD-recorder or cassette recorder. Hit record.

    Step 5: Hit play on the console menu to play all the sounds you need.

    In theory, the sounds should get played and recorded directly onto the CD or tape, which can then be transferred easily into a computer. (For tapes, use your soundcard's Line-In port and re-record digitally from there. You may not get the best qualtiy, but a good audio editing program should be able to clean it up to a resonable state.)

    Alternatively, pop the CD into the CD-ROM drive and see what happens. There might be an accessable sound directory in the disc if the PC CD-ROM laser can read it. Afterall, you can play all the music and SFX from a menu screen.

    I hope this helps in your search!
