====== Linux Audio Resources ======

Rosea Grammostola posted a [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2010-December/074491.html|script to download]] various //free// sound-fonts, sample and LA-resources on the [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/|LAU]] mailing-list.

For discussions on this, please post to the [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user|Linux-Audio-User]] email list.

This is a wikized version - feel free to extend, but please stick to the current format:
<code>
   * description for group of samples
     * one link per line - must be a link to downloadable file
     * another link
   * another description - include links to information pages about samples in the description.
     * link..
</code>

TODO: merge in information from the old [[soundfonts]] page.

PS. it'd be nice to have this info as a nested array: ''[] => array ('desc' => '..' links => array())'' so that any script, GUI or download-tool can make use of it.

PPS. an example script parsing the content of this wiki-page into such an array and querying the size of each download is available from [[
http://rg42.org/gitweb/?p=scripts.git;a=blob_plain;f=lau_soundfonts.php]]
