I had a feeling you will ask this (xD)

I think you guys should see the samples in FL_Studio . that is an industrial software but has a very high amount of instrument samples bundled to it .
Why I suggest FL_Studio
It uses a similar approach to what it seems to me that scratch team did , low level music processing ?

I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

But it's a large amount of space required on the computer, and that's not what they want to do.

FL_Studio samples are not public domain...
Public domain is probably sampling REAL instruments with a good microphone, someone else could do the processing and conversion of these samples.

Hey everyone - it's also possible to Make your own soundfonts, which would be awesome....
How about persuading a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_school
to join the bandwagon? (at least for sampling instruments)

*1 million facepalm* a sample on fruitly loops is hardly 100kb 
cause the processiong software is too pro to handle the conversion itself. and i never want scratch team to import the whole fruity loops [ boy that'd be awesome but ... um useless ]

It lists some soundfonts there. I use TimGM6mb.sf2, and it's very good. If you've ever used the MuseScore notation program (which I use), it's the default one.
I will restate that TimGM6mb.sf2 is very good for its size (5.7 MB).

If scratch team asks for educational purposes FL studio team might give em a lot of samples as a nice gift :-) , whats wrong in trying ?
also then there is LMMS same approach and i think its portable to adobes "actionscript" [ i myself is porting it to JavaScript and mozAudio for a project ]

what about making a browser extension?
that might not work because everyone would have to get the extension, and it wouldn't work at all if we are going to use a browser we made ourselves.
