Does any game besides Seventh Guest look for a CLK signal on pin 3 of the MIDI input? Is it for the dog barking?

I recall, there are soundblaster midi files .sbm. Isn't there a Creative midi file too? I found some reference to .smf being very old, it's also the current, GM2 midi file. I remember, Creative's file is .cts. Did any OS version support .smf natively? Put another way, what was the first version of …

Texas Instruments SN76489AN which was used on the Sega SG-1000 game console. It has one feature missing - it does not automatically switch between analog and s/pdif output. Necessary because of those Boston Acoustic speakers that had S/PIDF over a miniplug connector. Is there an SN76489ANA that is …

If I remember the Edirol ASIC correctly, it is CQM midi compatible, LA synthesis compatible, and General MIDI compatible. I do remember it has a BIOS message "general MIDI was not intended for PC audio" that some find unpleasant. Also, the SSC-1a ASIC reports in BIOS that it is meant for sound …

I'm getting partial matches from Roland's site for cm-32II or cm-32IIa. Was there such thing?

Soundblaster 16 MIDI modes

Did any game have multiple soundblaster 16 midi modes? Like Soundblaster 16 I, Soundblaster 16 II, or Soundblaster 16 III?

I've done enough research to ascertain that so called FM or CQM midi used .smf or "standard mid files". Aha! Of the synthesis chips on the Soundblaster 16 and Yamaha SoundEdge, which had the ability to playback that file? From what I have read, the CT1747 is the only chip that definitely did. The …

I forgot a quick way to investigate, go to mobygames and type in "sound canvas" in the search.

Is there any memory of this game? I saw an apple II version one day, didn't buy it, and it's the only storyline that I've ever seen compare to the Lord of the Rings.

What is meant by "Windows desktop" as a platform for Skype distinct from "Windows 10?" Does it have anything to do with Microsoft Surface?

I'm making an odd guess that it exists.

What are some GM and sound canvas games with the midi files for the BGM visible for playback?
Re: MIDI background music and web standards

Theoretically, when building motherboards, how much would it cost for a Roland RAP-10 chip on the motherboard? Because the problem with MIDI, is that it doesn't sound good without an upgrade to the motherboard or an upgrade to the operating system - a virtual sound canvas. So, to get BGM for low …

Maybe the web should be more low bandwidth friendly. I haven't seen studies.

Netzero still exists, so there is still a dial up market out there. We don't even use our phone company anymore. Cox cable. I was wondering if background mid was any good for that.
