+
+AKWF or Adventure Kid Waveforms is a collection of one cycle waveforms
+to be used within synthesizers or other kinds of sound generators. It
+is basically the smallest sound possible to sample and still get the
+overall feel of the sampled instrument.
+
+## Versions
+
+### AKWF (Original)
+
+The waveforms are 600 samples long, chosen during my early work on
+an additive synth in high school. That length worked well for
+layering octaves, while shorter cycles degraded the sound. I hadn’t
+yet learned about standard buffer sizes like 256 or 1024—this was
+just my starting point.
+
+If use it as a sample and treat it as a C ad you pitch it pitch it
+to D1+2 you get an actual C... yeah... I know...

+
+View AKWF waveforms as PNG plots for visual reference. Each image offers a straightforward depiction of the waveform shape to aid analysis and selection.
+
+### Listening
+
+There is an [open source app](https://github.com/tashian/waves) for previewing the waveforms.
+See [AKWF Player](https://waves.tashian.com).
+
+### Sound-generators
+
+#### [QU-Bit Chord](https://www.qubitelectronix.com/)
+
+Chord is a plug and play solution for bringing musical polyphony to your modular system. In the Qubit Chord module, AKWF (Adventure Kid Waveforms) provide textures, allowing for creative sound design in modular synthesis. Ideal for adding complex and evolving tones.
+
+#### [Elektron Model:Samples](https://elektron.se/explore/modelsamples)
+
+Elektron Model:Samples uses AKWF in it's sound library.
+
+## Usage
+
+These waveforms are compact, single-cycle samples used as oscillator shapes. They can be loaded into samplers as pitch-tuned sources or into synthesizers as static waveform options. While not wavetables, some synths allow morphing between them. Their low resource demands make them suitable for both old gear and more modern setups, offering a bit more timbral variety beyond the basic shapes for synthesizers and enabling some kind of hybrid synth-sampler behavior.

+# Aquanode Soundscapes
+
+A collection of free synth presets, effect patches, and plugin recreations for Vital, FL Studio's Patcher, PlugData, Dexed / DX7, and LinPlug Alpha 3. Aquatic, ambient, and dubby sounds throughout.
+
+# DOWNLOAD: https://github.com/aquanodemusic/aquanode-soundscapes/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
+
+### I made all these presets, patches and plugins here 100% myself for the listed third-party programs. Many of the patches and plugins listed here can be considered obsolete as I turned them into real VSTs I offer in my other repository, but these VSTs are made with AI so if you want to stay 100% human-made then this repo here is for you.
+
+If you want to support me, which I'd highly appreciate but you don't have to, then feel free to leave me a tip for my music on [bandcamp](https://aquanode.bandcamp.com), my songs are all free too!

+# Headroom Piano
+
+Yamaha C3 Grand Piano.
+Made by [Bengt Nilsson] originally for Kontakt NKI format:
+
+- Two mic positions
+- 5 velocity layers
+- 300 samples
+- Wav size 875 MB, converted to flac 156 MB
+
+Mapped by kinwie using sfz format v2 with ARIA extensions,
+with the author's permission as long keeping the original instrument name.
+
+Audio demo : https://sfzinstruments.github.io/pianos/headroom_piano
+
+
+## Compatibility Notes
+
+This SFZ Instrument is reconstructed with the heavily use of SFZ specification level 2.0 + ARIA Extensions. With this is mind, this instrument will only played properly in Plogue sforzando and similar sfz samplers that used ARIA Engine. Trying to play this instrument in other than ARIA-based sfz samplers may cause issues and problems if it doesn't support the opcodes superset used in this sfz instrument. If ARIA-based sfz sampler is not your choice, we advised you to choose a sfz sampler that has similar level of opcodes support for this instrument can be played and sounded as it should.
+
+
+## Control Details
+
+Sforzando's generic controls values :
+- 0% -to- 100%
+- Center value is 50% (set-to-default by Ctrl-click)
+
+Two microphones layers : Close Mic and Decca Tree.
+Each has dedicated volume, pan and width controls.
+
+- Volume center is 50%. Turn it up to 100% add up to +6 dB
+- Pan center is 50%. Lower value go Left and higher value go Right
+- Width normal is 50%. Higher value go wider. 0% is mono
+
+3-band EQ (peak) for each mic.
+C is for Close mic.
+D is for Decca Tree mic.
+
+- FreqLow range : 20Hz to 400Hz (initial at 20Hz)
+- FreqMid range : 200Hz to 4kHz (initial at 1.5kHz)
+- FreqHi range : 2kHz to 20kHz (initial at 12kHz)
+- Gain range : -/+ 12 dB (initial at 0 dB)
+- Bandwidth range : 0 to 4 octaves (initial at 3 oct)
+
+High Damper mode, added for high notes damper on/off option which is not available in the original Kontakt version.
+It uses CC67, so you can use sforzando's Left Pedal to switch between the 2 modes : Undampened and Dampened.
+- 0% : Undampened (as initial sfz load)
+- 1% or greater : Dampened (by pressing the Left Pedal)
+
+Release range, up to 2 secs, initial at 0.8s.
+
+Veltrack is volume to velocity tracking. Lowering the value will cause the lower velocity notes louder.
+
+
+## Improvements and Features
+
+- This piano has the note-selfmasking sfz native feature and polyphony optimized. This means, when playing a lot of notes (e.g. repetitive, trills or sustain pedal down), the voices count will be handled effectively and lower, which also means less jumping in CPU usage and results in more natural piano sound behavior.
+
+- Turning off either mic volume, Close Vol or Decca Vol at 0% will also disabling that mic layer and reduce polyphony by half.
+
+
+## Usage Tips
+
+- Setting Veltrack value to achieve a pleasant dynamic range that suit you also depend on your playing style and your keyboard/MIDI controller touch response. Try increase and decrease this "Veltrack" parameter as you play and feel the suitable one for you. To change the default value permanently, find this line in the sfz file : `set_hdcc$VELTRACK=1` and change the value to the one that you wanted, range from 0 to 1.
+
+- MIDI CC numbers are assigned at the top of the sfz file with the #define macro. They can be quick and easily changed to your personal favor or to match your MIDI controller device setup. After loading the instrument in sforzando, click the "Open In Text Editor" blue button at the INFO page, the sfz file will open by your default text editor. You will see a list of parameter's defined numbers. Change the number to your preference and then save it (e.g. Ctrl+S in WinOS), the CC numbers are updated to new ones. This is a handy feature in sfz and is a bit similar to MIDI Learn function.
+
+- The velocity ranges can be directly adjusted also using "Open In Text Editor" button to match your taste or keyboard response. 5 velocity layers : `#define $LOVELx` /  `#define $HIVELx`.
+
+- Velocity layers' volume (in dB) can be re-adjusted at these lines : `#define $VOL_VELx`
+
+- Intimate Piano is the child preset that use only the lowest velocity layer without EQ feature.
+
+- No effect version added for both sfz presets, without width and equalizers, which have advantage of low CPU usage.
+
+- If you are an advanced user and well understand this SFZ format, you can also modify anything in this sfz instrument to your personal taste, make new presets and settings that suit to your private need. SFZ is an easy-to-learn format and very editable. However, if you use this sfz as your basis to create a new one and want to distribute it, we just ask to explicitly put a note that it's derived from this sfz instrument in this github repository.
+
+
+## Update Log
+
+- Jan 2, 2022 : Rename control, Damper to Hi-Damp for less confusion.
+
+- Nov 28, 2020 : Remove unnecessary master width for reducing CPU load and sticked an unused CC to maintain CC order.
+
+- Sep 16, 2020 : Polyphony optimization by reducing high dampened notes release time from 20 to 10 seconds.
+
+- Aug 17, 2020 : Add No Effect version

+# dx7pytorch
+
+A Pytorch FM Synthesizer for audio deep learning.
+
+## Intent
+
+Synthesized datasets are usually very large and of limited versatility;
+**dx7pytorch** addresses this problem by bundling an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_modulation_synthesis" target="_blank"> FM Synthesizer</a> core into a Pytorch dataset wrapper. 
+
+The synthesizer core is a C++ emulator of the famous <a href="http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/dx7.php" target="_blank">Yamaha DX7</a>, a programmable digital instrument for which
+rich and varied timbres can be created by manipulating its internal parameters. Each combination of parameters is called **patch** and describes a particular timbre. 
+
+The timbres described by the patches can be synthesized into sound samples at selected **note** or **velocity**, and with different content, including **single notes, chords and arpeggios**. Hence, the dataset only requires to store patch information, occupying only a couple of Megabytes.
+
+There exist thousands of patches for this instrument. This repo includes a collection of 29830 unique patches extracted from a public source and filtered by a CRC32 hash filter. 
+
+See next sections to know how to replicate the filtering process and compile your own DX7 patch dataset.
+Also check `tests/audition.ipynb` for a quick overview on how this works.
+
+## Features
+
+- On-the-fly audio synthesis with full MIDI **note** and **velocity** support.
+- Selectable **sampling frequency**.
+- Arbitrary **instance length**.
+- Single note, chord and arpeggio synthesis.
+- Annotations are automatically generated (fundamental frequency, velocity, patch vector, selected chord or arpeggio).
+
+## Try it!
+
+1. Install this Python package: 
+    ```bash
+    pip install git+https://github.com/fcaspe/dx7pytorch
+    ```
+1. Or manually install and test it
+    ```bash
+    git clone https://github.com/fcaspe/dx7pytorch
+    cd dx7pytorch
+    python setup.py install
+    cd tests
+    python test_pytorch.py 
+    ```
+
+## How do I use it?
+
+**dx7pytorch** in 4 simple steps!
+
+![](img/dx7pytorch.png)
+
+1. In your Pytorch script, create an instance of the **dx7pytorch** dataset class, specifying:
+    * Path to the patch collection.
+    * MIDI note and velocity range to synthesize.
+    * Sampling frequency and Instance length.
+    * The use of a patch filter if desired.
+1. Use the dataset interface or a Pytorch *dataloader* to request audio instances.
+    * A specific MIDI note and velocity within the specified range is sent to the synthesizer.
+1. The audio samples are generated on-the-fly, every time a request is received.
+1. The Pytorch wrapper can additionally deliver MIDI annotation or patch information.
+
+## Compile your own patch collection
+
+This dataset contains a subset of unique patches extracted from <a href="http://bobbyblues.recup.ch/yamaha_dx7/dx7_patches.html" target="_blank">Bobby Blues</a> webpage.
+
+* You can regenerate the included dataset by entering to the **dataset** directory and trying:
+    ```
+    source generate_dataset.sh
+    ```
+    The script will download the original patch collection, move all files to a single directory and run the **patch_packer.py** script which will scan for uniqueness and
+    compile the filtered patches onto a **collection.bin** file which can be used by **dx7pytorch**. From the 140192 patches downloaded, only 29830 are unique.
+
+    *Note: Processing all patches takes a while; 1h 30min on my computer.*
+     
+     
+* To compile your own patch collection, extracted from Yamaha DX7 sysex files, put all your patch files into an empty directory, and run:
+    ```
+    python3 patch_packer.sh /path/to/patch/dir/
+    ```
+    The packer will scan for uniqueness and generate a **collection.bin** file.

+To change the intervals in these keyswitches, using the "Scale 3/4/5" control (0=3rd - 50=4th - 100=5th).
+Next keyswitches are for fixed intervals : Unison, Minor & Major 3rd, Perfect 4th & 5th and Octave.
+
+You can peek the used MIDI CC number by clicking the 'blue box' (Open in Text Editor)
+in Sforzando's Info page to open the sfz file.
+Velocity range of Flute 1 normal and staccato also can be adjusted from here,
+as well as other values.

+# jSteelDrum
+ C Steel Drum sampled instrument, sfz format, version 2
+
+- Hand-made oil-drum steel drum.
+- 24 notes sampled, C4 (middle C) to B5
+- 5 velocity layers, with velocity crossfades
+- 3 or 4 samples per zone (that is, per note per layer)
+- Stereo 16 bit, 44.1 KHz samples
+- Unlooped
+- 44 MB, in FLAC format
+
+## How-to
+
+### Zynthian
+
+On Zynthian, just install the package using the Webconf package manager.
+
+### Otherwise
+
+Click the green "Code" button above, and choose "Download ZIP". Unpack the .zip
+file into a folder of your choice, and load the result into your sample player.  I use Sforzando,
+which supports FLAC.  You only need the jSteelDrum-flac-sfz folder and its contents.
+The .sfz file in there is what you load into your player.
+
+There are two versions of the .sfz file, one with velocity crossfades and one without.
+I suggest you use the one with crossfades.
+
+## About the instrument
+
+This is a sampling of a steel drum (a.k.a. "steel pan") hand-made in Trinidad and sold
+by Hopetown Music of Long Beach CA, around 2005.  (See photo & PDF.)
+The samples were recorded in September 2021.
+
+Samples were recorded in mid-side stereo using an AT4033a as the mid mic and a Studio Projects
+B3 as the side mic.
+
+## Controls
+
+Use the Mod wheel (CC1) to control stereo depth.  With the mod wheel in the center (50%),
+the stereo depth is 100% (normal.)  Pull the wheel all the way down to get pure mono, or push above
+50% to get an extra wide image, or anything in between.  When you load the sampleset,
+the depth will be 100% even if the mod wheel is not at zero, but if you move the mod
+wheel, the depth will change accordingly.
+
+Enjoy!
+
+
+## Comparison to version 1
+
+- The lower octave was resampled to get more even dynamics.  The first time I sampled the instrument, I concentrated on using the same stike force for each velocity layer.  As it turns out, different notes respond very differently.  So this time, I focused on the timbre, trying to get the same amount of harmonics for each note in a layer.  I used the version1 samples for the second octave (where I had a harder time getting consistent timbres).
+- The top velocity layer here is the 4th (2nd highest) layer in the original.  When playing
+the first version, I didn't find its top layer musically useful.  I guess there's a limit to how hard you should beat on an instrument.
+- Version 1 was stretched dynamically so that low velocity notes were quieter than the default.  This was needed to get the top velocity layers to sound loud enough (since the peaks are very high, whough without a lot of pitched content.)  With the new sample set, this didn't seem necessary so I didn't bother.
+- I left out the three innermost pads (C#6, D#6, and F6), which weren't musically very useful.
+- This sampleset has velocity crossfades, so timbre variation transitions smoothly with velocity.
