Freepats is a project to create a free and open set of instrument patches, in any format, that can be used with softsynths. We would like to collect and host samples and instrument patches in any format so if you are interested in contributing to the project then send a message to the freepats mailing list. Needless to say, any uploaded content must either be in the Public Domain or have an open and free redistribution license.

Reference documentation and SMF MIDI files are also wanted as well as any HOWTO or general information about patches, samples or the applications to use them, on the Wiki. Feel free to contribute or get involved via the mailman web interface. Please use the Wiki for notes and documentation.

System sounds

Free sounds meant for applications, system events, notifications, alarms, ringtones... They are usually short sounds or tunes, some of them can be played in a loop.
