Does anyone know of a (free?) collection of samples from those 80s arranger keyboards?
(like those Yamaha PSR units, etc, etc)

Like the drum machine in this tune:

You probably already have them. If your computer is windows, it has a built-in GM (general midi) synth based on exactly such samples, in a soundfont.
The gm.dls file is typically located in C:\windows\system32\drivers. However, the file gmreadme.txt right near it says: The GM.DLS file contains the Roland SoundCanvas Sound Set which is protected under the following copyright: Roland GS Sound Set/Microsoft (P) 1996 Roland Corporation U.S.

Like actually old PSR samples? That's interesting.

I just realized those Casio sounds might be what I'm looking for too.
