Welcome
SoundFonts, Midi Files, DVD Reviews, Hardware Reviews, Software Reviews, Puzzles, Downloads and more! All the Soundfonts and most of the General Midi files were created by myself. Welcome to the new design for the Orchard of Oddities. If you want to contact me, use the link in the menu. Enjoy what you find and watch out for more oddities soon!
For my computer consultancy work, including web design, photo restoration, technical tuition, hardware and software solutions, check out my Web Design page for examples of my work and details.
What's On This Site?
Music
There's a variety of things on this site, but quite a bit of it is music
orientated. I created SoundFonts based on my original midi files, which in turn were created from the sequences designed on my sequencer. I also remix tracks, and some
examples can be found as mp3 files. To top things off, I have designed some music quizzes. There are mp3 files, and flash based quizzes.
Games
There are many JavaScript based quizzes, mainly multiple
choice. Also included are some Excel based quizzes, and (as my abilities have prgressed) some flash quizzes. Plus of course the aforementioned music quizzes.
Downloads
Some quizzes are available to download and play away from
the site, plus some screensavers and a few programs including my Boot BMP Changer for XP.
Reviews
For several years I was the chief reviewer for a computer
club (and later became the secretary and webmaster) and subsequently I got a chance to review software and hardware for the newsletter given out to members. I also have an
extensive DVD collection which I have reviewed as well.
Links
As a keen photographer (both 35mm and digital) some of my photos
are on this site, with a section dedicated to my school days. There's also a section where I rant about different things, and there's also some other stuff which doesn't
fit into any other category.
