Re: MT-32 + SC-55 @ same computer

A 'deluxe' solution would be to use an audio mixer to connect all the audio outputs to (soundcard, midi modules). That way you can just turn up the volume of the devices that you want to hear and mute the ones that you don't want to hear. I have a setup like this (several MIDI modules daisy chained …

You can find the drivers for the Matrox G400 MAX (I still have mine, bought it as soon as it was released) on the Matrox website: http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/support/drivers/latest/ They also have drivers online for Windows 3.x and OS/2. BIOS updates for their graphics card can be downloaded …

There is Roland SCC-1 on eBay at the moment: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Roland-SCC-1-Soundkarte-/110736061775?pt=DE_Technik_Computerzubeh%C3%B6r_Multimedia&hash=item19c862354f However, the seller is only shipping to Germany, perhaps a request might make him change his mind about that. Starting price is …

This morning, two packages arrived! The first contained a Diamond Monster Sound MX200 with the Monster MIDI daughterboard. I have been looking for this daughterboard for quite a while and last week I was quick enough to snap it up on eBay for a very reasonable price. The second package, besides a …

Judging by the number on the PCB (the '2' behind the 'M'), this is an early revision of the SCB-55. I have read somewhere that early revisions of this board had the left and right channels reversed, so this cut and these patches might have a way to correct that. Edit: yes, a look at http://en. …

Thank you for your observations. I agree the open spaces on the Malibu might be used for an effects processor and some RAM.

It should be very simple to get a Roland MPU-IPC working. Unless it's defective of course.

Kurzweil MIDI on Turtle Beach cards

Recently I finally managed to extend my collection of Waveblaster-type MIDI daughterboards with a Trust Korg Super Sound Module (exactly the same as a Korg Ai20 or Guillemot Korg Wave Upgrade). There are a few more I would like to have, one of which is a Turtle Beach Kurzweil HOMAC. However, these …

The QuestStudios forum is specific to sound/MIDI, but is very quiet, unfortunately. It would be nice to see interest picking up on that site, in the Classifieds section in particular. There is a community of very knowledgeable people over there. I have a SCC-1 card (that I do not want to sell) and …

If anyone is interested in buying a Terratec WaveXTable: I received a second one today (with full packaging), so the 'bulk' version I already had is up for sale. I may also put up an ad on QuestStudios. Update: already sold to Gerwin!

The card you have is probably an Aureal SQ2500 SuperQuad (OEM version); I have two identical cards right here. There is another version of this card with a coaxial digital output instead of the optical one, which was sold by Terratec (among others).

The CD-ROM interface on the SoundBlaster Pro is definitely NOT an IDE interface; you will need an old (2x) Panasonic CD-ROM to use that. As for the problem with the Elite: I believe the address you are using is not the address for the IDE interface. You could try 1F0 or 170. Sorry, cannot be of more …

Personally, I do not understand why anyone would use Windows ME over Windows 98SE. I've tried it a few times and had it crash unrecoverably on all occasions. It is also more resource hungry than 98SE and there is not much (if anything) that you could not do with 98SE. In my opinion, Windows ME is …

Thanks, that might come in useful. Anyone looking for a full size ESS1868 card to fit a WB daughterboard, try finding a Terratec Gold 16/96.

I'll be more than happy to make more recordings, so post your requests. You will have to wait until after the weekend, because the PC with the Wave XTable is in the office.

Yes, this is a WaveBlaster type board, although Terratec included two other connectors on this board, proprietary I assume. There is a manual (which includes a picture of the board) here: ftp://ftp.terratec.de/Producer/ACCESSORIES/WA … nual_GB_1.0.pdf

I put the recordings up on my webspace, which you can find here: http://members.home.nl/c.kersten/Terratec%20W … e%20Recordings/ I hope I got all the names right, as the filenames of the MIDI files were rather short in a few cases. Anyway, you can have a listen now.
