I use samples from some SF2s as well, specifically this odd Super Nintendo styled SF2 I downloaded years ago because some samples in it are super cool and weird not to mention the perfect sample rate and size, specifically this oddly-heavenly sounding nylon acoustic guitar, but for electric guitars (which I wanna experiment with making metal in trackers) I use FM guitars because they just shred hard as hell for some unknown reason. I use OpenMPT on Windows but I've heard there are others that are much better. I saw the website for Renoise but looking at some screenshots, it really gives me the "what the fuck do I do here and how" kind of feeling software like FL Studio or Cubase gives me. I also love sampling voices, I have this old WAV from the 90s of some guy from IBM talking about what information technology would become, and sampling him is funny.

I don’t know if you’ve already run across this but you might like Ableton’s Learning Synths site and also Syntorial. They’re both more on the side of learning to program synthesizers than using the DAWs themselves, but I always wished I had learned earlier about how all those knobs worked.
