SCC1T2.sf2 has out of tune pianos, GM.sf2 has bad volume levels. Fixes for both!

Recommended Posts

BTW, since you found fixed/improved versions of SCC1T2.sf2 and GM.sf2, I think it would be a great idea to update the downloads in the "40 soundfonts" thread to include these.

E1M6 midi from Doom1 really shows how obnoxiously loud certain instruments can be. The “war drums” are way too quiet compared to the synth when using GM.sf2, but when you use the fixed RLNDGM.sf2, all the Doom music is balanced perfectly.

 

As for the out of tune pianos, On map04 of TNT (and canyon.mid) you can really hear the our of tune pianos for SCC1T2.sf2. Florestan’s fix makes them sound great again.

Doom 2's Running from Evil is actually another example(the organs is really quiet with GZDoom's default soundfont)

Well the difference between RLNDGM.sf2 and GM.sf2 is noticeable in D_E1M6.mus, it's just that I have to run the the former above the latter without completely removing it because the fix only contains the instruments which are fixed and not the ones which are already okay. 

Thank you very much for sharing this @Doomkid!

 

One last question; Does RLNDGM.sf2 have any problems? Out of tune pianos which the other .sf2 had?

Not as far as I can tell, every MIDI I throw at it seems to sound exactly as it’s supposed to
