   There are many kinds of wavetable instrument bank formats, including SoundFont 2 (.sf2), the Downloadable Sounds (.dls) standard from the MIDI Association, and the UltraSound patch format.

   Microsoft DirectMusic implements the Downloadable Sounds standard and not SoundFont 2; however, DirectMusic is now an obsolete technology, it seems.

   Among the challenges I make to the open-source community is a public-domain set of instrument banks for software synthesizers. Making these banks would be easier if there were a guide on producing decent-quality instrument banks from the recordings of real musical instruments (rather than copying or converting other instrument banks or recording from commercial synthesizers).

   Wrote a page for it on the wiki (https://wiki.easyrpg.org/user/player/sites-to-find-fonts-and-soundfonts), may need some improvements and better clarity for recommended soundfonts but that should work as a start.
