    I feel like every movie trailer has had the same sound font for like, well over ten years now.

        tldr; the handful of sounds/ instrument sounds used.

        that’s how I think of it anyway. Kind of a more antiquated MIDI term for saved lists of what samples/hardware get triggered by the composition data. One example is the roland MT-32 with dos games. You could hear a games music through the device but change each instrument. Even make it all drums if you want etc. Then you could save those choices as soundfonts.
