I came across this archive of soundfonts, I don't use them but thought I'd share in case anyone here enjoys them 
" This is a collection of 500 different GM-compatible soundfonts in SF2 format."
https://ia800401.us.archive.org/view_arc...M_Sets.zip
And another archive...
https://archive.org/download/free-soundf...f2-2019-04
I guess these soundfonts are everywhere!

Many thanks for these links.
SF2 Soundfonts are a formidable opportunity to make an arranger/synth much better than what the factory makes it.
My previous Yamaha A-3000 became a monster with the right SF2, and blew Genos off the track.
So far I have not been able to import SF2 to my Pa5X due to many bugs, but this will be resolved, and then the Pa5X will be a SUPER monster.

What keyboard model(s) do you have ?: Korg PA4X-76 , Yamaha Genos 2,Hammond SK1.

Bio: I am 63 years old, I make music for myself. Music helps in everything!About myself - by profession - an engineer, worked as a fitter, technician, welder, mechanic. Then - my own business, I still work, but already have the status of a pensioner. I love to work with my hands, in the house there is everything that is needed for any work (machines, tools). I was involved in music since childhood, but there was a big break at 25 years, I had to earn a living. Returned to music some time ago, under the influence of my friend, a musician (looks like the time has come). An amateur, I catch everything by ear. At home in the basement equipped a small studio for my pleasure, but there is not enough time to master all the instruments (how everything has changed! ). Somehow it turned out by chance that some of the most complex instruments (arranger) are available. Available - Korg PA4X, PA1X (lies for special occasions!), Yamaha Genos 2, Hammond SK1, Roland KC-400 + KC-200(the neighbors appreciated))). I'd be glad to meet you, but I'm of little use in terms of music. But I can share (as a mechanic) about disassembling the PA4X and PA1X, I disassembled the 4X completely (I was amazed by the primitiveness of the design, but in simplicity lies some genius))). And I apologize for the language - I'm writing through a translator. Have a nice day everyone!!!

Thank you very much for sharing! This is a gigantic work and I will definitely find something wonderful there!

No - while VCE is based on internal sounds, SF2 is pure samples which require a lot of space.
You can't use SF2, because DGX doesn't have RAM availability.

I will try some of these even though on my Pa700 even though my memory is full at the moment. Dont forget to convert them to mono if anyone else is trying them.
Is the first archive available as a zip file?

I never used them either. I have seen some say they use them in their keyboards (I believe it was Eileen and a Tyros) but I don't know how it was done. I'm not ready to mess about with my keyboard with things like this yet so didn't look for further information.
The program CoolSoft VirtualMIDISynth was mentioned for using soundfonts so I've downloaded it. I guess you can listen to the various soundfonts with it, on your computer. I might give that a try, see what they are about.

There are many very good SF2s among these; including the best available for use with the Creative Sound Blaster Gold 64 sound card.
I am now able to make use of all sound fonts, and can also export them for the enjoyment of other Pa5X users.
This is however laborious, but they will be presented when I find the time.
