The important issue to understand is is to look at the graph. Essentially, for example, what a distortion pedal does to a guitar signal is chop the peaks off the sine waveform, to make it a square, with that in mind, when an audio signal clips, among other things, it causes the distortion I was …

Indeed, lowering the volume using the sb pro mixer fixes the issue, the popping's still there but, obviously, not as noticeable. Thanks for all your help and I hope this thread serves someone, somewhere in the future solve the issue as well.

Nope, started DosBox 0.74 "out of the box" (except, obviously, for mounts) and yep, pops at beginning and end as well as sound garbling. I've uploaded 2 files, one from PCem and one from DosBox...the DosBox one's rather useless, the pigs aren't even there...but recording them did show something …

Same version actually. I just tried it with plain BLASTER (no IRQ or address like install sets legend.bat to start and no MT-32) and while the beginning of the sample now plays, by the end it's all garbled, easily tested with the very first "pigs" sample, also with the cows in the barn. Tested both …

Hello :) I've been trying for quite a while now to get Eric the Unready's digitized sound working under DosBox to no avail. The sound card is detected, yet when digitized sound is meant to play, all I get is a sound drop and some crackles. Just like this video: https://youtu.be/c2Dt7PtV1E0?t=3m29s …

You'll never, ever get it to sound like the Apple out of the box: sound hardware was different and I believe Ultima 4 only supports PC speaker.

[*]Is there a plan in the community at some point to take the new features of the various branches, merge them into the trunk (if they are not already there) and issue a new official release? It is a pain in the ass and a lot would break the idea of portability (Direct3D for Linux or OS X, anyone …

I took some time to correct, streamline, make an open format (PDF) and complete Spikey's list. The bulk of the work's still his :). I find alphabetical lists much more convenient when combing for folders or D-Fend profiles, so here are two versions: one sorted alphabetically and the other by year, …

Set blaster is produced by DosBox automatically, no need to mess with it. Try sbpro1 as well, see how it goes, also, ct-voice.drv is looked for at a subdirectory called drv of whatever folder is passed in set sound, so, if you have, say, a folder called "creative" with a DRV folder inside that …

Also Freeware != Open Source and Open Source != Freeware. Open Source is about freedom (that may or may not also imply no charge...ask Red Hat); freeware is just a program not charged for but not forced to include the source and can legally bind you not to study it, reverse engineer it, decompile it …

In short: with that specific game you can't: ScummVM can translate PC Speaker music (I believe it uses the Tandy version) to MIDI...DosBox doesn't do that. There was a patch somewhere (I think) that allows you to do that to old Sierra games, maybe check the sierra help pages for it. Without a patch …

Did you apply _inmm.dll to DosBox.exe? All that "scary" (geez) program does is patch some calls to some MCI audio CD reading routines inside an .exe or a .dll to use its own server instead of the Windows facilities. DosBox doesn't need that program (CD audio works just fine), it's only for Windows …
