Soundfonts are files that contains samples and playback parameters like envelopes and LFOs.

Take a look in RGC audios area here on KvR for a big list of soundfont sites.

Best VSTi soundfont player is SFZ by rgc audio.

There are a lot of second and third rate free soundfonts out there. You have to wade through a lot to find the gems.

To get good ones you will most likely need to pay for them.

soundfont.com and sonic implants do a good job at reasonable prices.

Also check out sonomics.

YOu can also pick up a converter, like Awave or Extreme Sample Converter, to turn some of your existing stuff into SF format.

I second that for Sonic Implants. Really good sounds at good prices and a wide range of quality depending on you budget. Free is nice and I have a few myself. But SI's quality can't be beat for a lot of must haves. Once you get into samples one library won't do. A little here and some there. Can't have too much
