If that all does not work, try unmuting the Auxiliary input. I have a vague recollection of that working on some Vortex2 cards for the wavetable daughterboard.

As I did not see it mentioned whether you tried it: did you try changing (increasing) the wait states for the ISA bus in the BIOS settings? And did you try any setting with just DMA channels 0 and 1?
Re: GUS Max not playing all instruments, but has full ram?

It might help if you posted the system settings of you GUS MAX and your system specs. A few things to check are whether you are using high DMA channel for the GUS (4 through 7) and if you can change delay settings of your ISA slots in the BIOS and maybe also the ISA clock setting. Try setting the …

Is this soundcard worth saving?
Posted on 2022-11-15, 21:56
Today I had a day off and I finally started going through the collection of (mostly ISA) soundcards I have collected over the past 15 years or so. Besides a whole box full of Creative Sound Blaster cards (ranging from SB 1.5 to SB AWE64) there were a few Aztech cards and also the card in the photos. …

Re: WaveBlaster daughterboard dimensions - what was the largest?

When using standoffs, the hole closest to the waveblaster connector is not used in most cases (the Turtle Beach Rio is an exception; it comes with four standoffs which are not in my photos on https://waveblaster.nl ). I once measured the Roland SCB-55, which is 138.4 x 89.9 mm. This is one of the …

I downloaded and installed Munt 2.4.0.2 (x64) a few days ago and that appears to work just fine on Windows 10 20H2.

I was told by the initiator and sponsor of this project that the parts were extremely difficult to source and come mainly from China. A significant amount of time and money was invested. He actually had several other daughterboards (including SCC-1 and SCC-1A versions) and several ISA soundcards …

...but at an analog level something very different is going on, with yours being more bass-heavy with less clarity in the top. Could this be the sound card? (SB16 filtering?)

So I made recordings of both my Ensoniq DB revisions A and B. During recording I noticed that the signal level on the right channel of the rev A board was rather low, much lower than the left channel. I suppose there is some kind of malfunction or bad part in the analog section of the board. However …

Can't say that I know how to fix that. Documentation says: Compatibility * Windows 95 Plug'n'Play * SoundBlaster and SoundBlaster Pro compatible * MPU-401 compatible MIDI interface (DOS and Windows) That might just mean that you can use the Game/MIDI port as an MPU-401 in DOS (or possibly in a DOS …
