Instrument Definitions

Do we have an updated 'Instrument Definition' repository?

I have the standard two .zip files of ones installed with Cakewalk and User Collection but there's an awful lot missing, does anyone have a link for user made ones?

I've made a few myself that are missing from the standard .zip files, would be nice to get everything in one place.

Thanks, spiffo.

Anybody having any luck installing the "instrument definitions", .ins files, into the Bandlab Cakewalk.  I went thru the process and they show up with all the connections, but when I browse the patches, it just shows GM instruments.

 

Instrument_Definitions_Installed_with_SONAR.zip

Instrument_Definitions_User_Collection.zip

Once you've imported the .ins files to your master.ins, you need to associate them with a MIDI port/channel (or a range of ports/channels), then assign the port &  channel for your MIDI track.

Only then will the instruments show up:

Thank you.  I had already done the associations which is what I meant by making all the connections, but I was looking in the wrong place for the patches.  Silly me, I thought I could click on the "browse patches" button and find them.  Thanks again.

Nice.

A friend of mine played with them a few years back. He said they were down to earth, and overall great guys.

I hope they move those files some place new users can access. The links take you to the old forums but a Cakewalk account is required to access.  If you didn't already have one, you're out of luck since they have disabled creating new accounts.

Alternately, since the old forums are read-only anyways, they could just post a courtesy account people could use to access the old forums if they don't have an account.
