Description-en: Free patch set for MIDI audio synthesis
Freepats is a free patch set suitable for MIDI audio synthesis. It is not
complete, nor comprehensive yet, and most, if not all patches are in the
old and limited GUS patch format.
.
It is, however, the sole DFSG-compliant patch set in existence so far.
New patches (including those in better formats, such as SF2 SoundFont banks)
are welcome.
