    I search for this sound, sounds like a music box for me.
    The sound I mean starts at 0:08


    Does anyone know sounds similar to this, maybe a soundfont?

    In my opinion -- Sounds more like a; Glockenspiel, Xylophone, Vibes or something of that nature

    Sylenth1, SUPER :) :)

    I also found a midiof that track and the producer of that midi used an celesta / celeste, sounds very similar to me...

    Also found a Music Box VST and a Celesta VST, and the Celesta VST actually sounds very good in my opinion...

    Great I'm glad you found some tweakable solutions because you can end up with better results than just using some sample :)

    A percussionist would recognize this sound as a manipulated kind of a chime. The kind that are seperate metal bar attached to it's own box resonator. I remember playing them a couple times in school. But that sound is not based on any of the usual mallet percussion family mentioned above. Just being a percussion geek.

    Doesn't sound like musicbox, glockenspiel, xylophone to me. Sounds more like a kalimba or mbira, imo.
    But what do I know?
