I like your web-site. I've been looking on the net for music creation software and FREEWARE is definitely a way for people like me to figure out what I need and how badly I need it. Thanks for the awesome software! Check out my mp3 mixes if you get a chance. See ya'll in the NYC clubs!

interesting about waveform rendering.. An improvement would be explaining a bit of fourier transform-theory and frequency<->time respresentation of signals. Thinking about creating a rendering-machine for "real" instruments using wavelet-transform. Although, I didn't think about the problem with all too many sinewaves, d*mn. Feedback seems to be a solution, now if it only existed a mathematical theory behind t...

Thanks. Your website(s) have been very helpful to me. I am a guitar player who has been using a trusty analog 4 track up until about a month or so ago when I bought Cakewalk Guitar Studio 2. It has been a bit of a hassle, but I think I'm getting the hang of it, especially the SoundFonts -thanks in part to you.

After pestering Mr. Wilson about the availability of his commercial SoundFonts, I learned that his business venture is being thwarted by those who issue "Green Cards" (Why 'green'?). Vexed, ashamed of our Governement and beyond the pale of being enraged, I urge the entire nation to throw rocks as hard as you can at the Immigration and Naturalisation Service! And yell, "Fuckers!" when you hit them! How long should we have to wait for these delecious SoundFonts?

Thank You for existing in this Planet ! One more REALLY GREAT SOUNDFONT on the Net. The "Vintage Dreames" soundfont is one of the internet-soundfonts we used in our songs, like "Gypsys of the Universe", "Starlover" and "Smile!". Thanks to the author. If Y u want to listen, how we used it, got to "Cosmic music network" (http://cosmic.cdnow.com), type a k-word analog and klick on the name Space Boys :-) Thanks

I love this site. I've been reading it on and off for the past year now. I for one like to thank you immensely for showing how an old subject can bring something as small as the awe32 back to life. Without your Vintage Dreams soundfont, I don't think that I would have tried to press the limits of my Awew64 gold to the limits to create all types of sounds. By utilizing the techniques you've bought to life, I can now do what I always wanted to do... create my own sounds(snares, base drums, fat base sounds, s nth sounds, strings, etc.) from simple wave forms! :-) I am interested in any more topics that you'll bring to this website in the future. Whenever you get a chance email me at Eternal_Adv@yahoo.com, I read how you purchased an Alesis qs6 and are going to apply the vintage synth knowledge there as well. I have an Alesis qs8 and would like to learn how to do this as well. I am especially interested in learning how to get the filters and the resonance dsp to sound really blippy and loud! Thanks again Ian and keep up the awesome work! :-) later!

Good clean efficient site, I will spend more time here. One band I thought should be mentioned in your list of Electronic Gods is relatively new, called VAST (Visual Audio Sensory Theatre). May pass as Ambient but he is too good with a guitar to just be a keyboard jockey. Listen to Touch and flames, and the last song on the CD that I can not remember the name of at this moment, and you will agree this guy knows how to use samples and Soundfonts. Give him a listen :-) Best of luck in the future...L8R

Hello Ian, I am using an AWE32 for several years now. I got quickly tired of downloading huge Soundfonts containing only a few instruments. The idea of vintage synthesis and notably your fantastic vintage dreams renewed my enthousiasm. I am a great fan of synthesizer music and your soundfont(s) now enable me to create synth-midi files on my AWE. Many thanks for your awesome work !!! Claude Kaber

I'm very pleased with the soundfonts you have created, they have a great musical value. I recently bought a Live! and am getting used to desktop music. I've used ESQ 1s to create music and sounds in the past and I'm analyzing your usage of wave samples in soundfonts and applying the same principles (hopefully) to create my own soundfonts based on the ESQ sounds I've used. Best wishes--Brian

Yup, this is the first comment in the Guestbook :-)
Watch this space for further soundfont releases, including favourites from old analog and digital synths. These soundfonts will mostly be based around emulations of these old synths, but in most cases the sound-quality will be a lot higher, and perhaps a little less cliche.
