Scratch SoundFont is a soundfont that all the sounds are from Scratch 2.0's soundbank and to hear how MIDI files are played back in Scratch 2.0.
You can download this soundfont here.

(Scratch SoundFont Examples link is now currently unavailable since I will make better examples soon!)

Even if you don't have a soundfont player, you can also use this 3rd party Keppy's MIDI player/converter to try the soundfont out or convert MIDIs with the soundfont.

Note that Scratch's soundbank has 21 instruments put into the 128 GM instrument slots (e.g. GM Mapping, a la Casio LK-100, CTK-491, etc.), Drum (channel 10) numbers 35-81 are General MIDI drums, and drum numbers 0-17 are the 18 native Scratch drums.

If there are any problems with the soundfont or if there is a problem with the links, please leave me a post here for extra feedback.

UPDATE: I updated the soundfont by attempting to adjust the fine tuning of looped instrument samples to almost match the sound pitch of Scratch's sound.

Created in SynthFont Viena. I know there are other soundfont editors that can make a soundfont like this one!

Very nice! It sounds exactly like my MIDI player test, except for the fact that Scratch can't play more than 5 notes at a time…

Scratch can't play 5+ notes? Why would they limit it?

It's more like bad management of Flash sound channels…

SoundFont? Huh?

Well I don't have a MIDI file to try it out, (I don't have a musical instrument)

I think this is not a Scratch thing but a collection of MIDI notes, but instead of musical notes sounds from the Scratch sound library are played.

Like I said before, you can use this MIDI converter to use the soundfont. You can find some MIDI files online.

Ok.
These sounds don't sound like sounds from the library, they are notes.

The sounds from the soundfont just sound like the ones where you drag

play note(60 v)for(0.5)beats

play drum(48 v)for(0.25)beats

blocks and click on them. Also, there are 3 MIDI files that came with most Windows: onestop, town, and flourish. They are located in C:\Windows\Media

Oh ok thanks

This rather different…

Should you be unable to install programs, I don't think normally you would be allowed to install anything o a library/public computer.

It's more like “I'm too lazy to make a proper MIDI composer so I'm just going to play one note per channel”… and then we have too many channels and then no more audio.

However, it is an easy-ish fix. I'll look into it in my free time. (Which is in abundance right now)

Part 1: I got a sound wave playing, using the SiON library. Documentation for it is hard to come by so right now I'm just guessing.
Part 2: I broke it. Well, I guess Leopard can temporarily go without sound in the course of getting a proper MIDI synth into Scratch.

The MIDI example seems to work. It can play my MIDI test suite reasonably well - Death Waltz (lots of notes), Gangnam Style (pitch bending, volume, instruments) and the Toontown Online theme (lots of silly intruments). Perhaps you could adapt it for Scratch.

Yeah, I'll look into that. Problem is, it actually loads MIDI files and from the looks of things I can't actually get a single MIDI note.

IT'S ALIVE!… I think.

So, in theory I just got us an actual MIDI synth for Scratch, which is awesome! Although, however, something I did broke something in the process and now notes play forever infinitely.

EDIT: Okay, I fixed that, but now volume is ignored. That's a shame.
