Soundfont appreciation thread

The MIDI soundtrack option in SRB2 is neglected far too often, which is a shame since it can be made to sound very good.
In my opinion, the way MIDIs sound in SRB2 by default isn't very good, and soundfonts can help improve how it sounds!

If you want to know how to use soundfonts in the first place, refer to this tutorial

This thread is for discussing and sharing of soundfonts (don't upload the file directly! Share the link to the place you got it)

Anyways, here are some of my favorite soundfonts.

This SC-55 soundfont sounds really good, I even prefer it to digital music in some cases, I tried this one because the SC-55 was used for Doom's music, and you can even hear some Doom instruments here and there!
This OPL3 soundfont makes SRB2 sound like it's being played back on a classic SoundBlaster, I used this for my Chocolate SRB2 config to make it sound like DOS Doom

Places to get soundfonts

MusicalArtifacts (Takes a while to load but has a ton of soundfonts)
Archive.org (this link is to a specific thing on archive which as 500, there are probably some elsewhere though)
(Will add more down the line)
 
It's not that hard you only have to verify the source of the file and its size too...I also tried OPNA (PC-98), FluidR3, and OPL2, which sounded cool!
I highly recommend downloading these soundfonts!
