I performed MT-32 self test, it passed flawlessy. Also, auto generated sounds are perfect, no rustles that I hear during playback. Also, with the help of a friend I connected an external piano, and all instruments played are bad as music playback thru PC. Note that it seems that high frequency …

As I reported, I got the audio output directy from PCM54HP chip, bypassing the output stage. pitchshifter wrote on 2024-03-03, 10:23: Check the output rca solders, could be in bad shape. Also coud be the rca connectors themselves.

@midicollector @Spikey Thanks for your answer. I own another MT-32 that works great in the same setup (I apologize I missed this info). @Schule04 I'll try that, thank you!

Hello to everyone! I have a Roland MT-32 (V1) Synth that produces bad sound (I attached a small MP3 file containing Monkey Island 2 opening theme recorded live using my smartphone). Firmware is the latest 1.07, I replaced capacitos and I replaced PCM54HP ic (I thought it was faulty because audio …

Hi, I own two Diamond 3DFX Voodoo 1 cards. One of them lacks a component labeled L9 (no video output when switch to 3DFX mode). https://i.postimg.cc/5Xz1Ghzk/20231128-115109.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/YhZMdrvW/20231128-114132.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/zL151xSD/20231128-114501.jpg I moved it from the …

Very useful, thanks …

Yes, some of those updates I mentioned were known as 486 patches because even 486 speeds caused issues. The update for CD version of Day of the Tentacle says "This is an update to correct problems with missing, poor quality, or intermittent speech and digitised sound in the PC CD version of 'Day …

Cards like that are hit and miss when it comes to DOS compatiblity, but most/all old LucasArts games are also sensitive to CPU speed causing issues with audio. Some of them got updates that fix those issues and some didn't, if you are running a faster CPU look for those updates and/or slow down you …

Hello to everyone! I'm testing a bunch of old PCI soundcards in real DOS 6.22 environment. Most of them works flawlessy, but some models does not work in Lucasfilm games as Monkey Island 2, Indy Atlantis or Day of Tentacle (the only game that ever works is Monkey Island 1). In these games completely …

Learn something new everyday, didn't know this myself and the p5a series is my favorite....thought only the ''+'' were affected. Found this on the web somewhere, if your test with a slower/older cpu works please confirm. Perhaps the mod i linked to earlier will also fix this problem? Found this: it …

Hello to everyone, I tried to configure ALI AGP Utility as suggested by swaaye and F2bnp. Advance configuration section of ALI AGP Utility was grey/disabled, so I tried to upgrade ALI AGP Drivers to V2.13 (as suggested by meljor), and this enabled it. Unfortunately new settings produced no results …

Thanks to everyone for the answers. I just completed some tests, but the issue is still here. P5A motherboard version is 1.06. ALI AGP driver V1.54e and ALI IDE drivers V3.4 (the latest from Asus website) are installed. CPU is a standard AMD K6-2 533 MHz (slightly overclocked to 550 using 100 MHz …
