Oh, an interesting question. Though, I don't think this is the simplest way to add multiprocessing there, this function is the main CPU consumer, actually. Apparently, generateSamples() is quite complicated to split the processing over samples since every next sample is dependent on those TVx …

Looks nice, sergm. Thanks, ykhwong :) Though, generally that's neither my idea nor basic GUI design. So, thanks should go to Jerome as well. ;) I noticed that cmake does not produce files for compilers with your qt branch(mt32emu-qt). Not sure what you mean here... :/ Do you specify generator …

Great, that's a PortAudio bug then. Seems it uses 4 ms chunks for output and says audio latency is 0. Anyway, you should be fine with that setting and surely can play real MIDIs thru one or more sessions which could be separate or mixed into one synth (in case you want to load sysexes using one …

@ Kaminari: You're right, it's definitely wide. But now for HD LCDs are everywhere, that isn't a problem, I think. Thanks, I agree it'll be more convenient than re-open same ports at every program launch. I'll add auto-storing these synths settings soon. @ ufoufo512: Looks not good :/ For your …

@ ufoufo512: As it comes to launching the subj on Mac platform, I'm most interesting in the timing quality of PortAudio driver. After you start the test MIDI driver, you get the sequence of numbers like this (output from my Win box): M 270610 -21617 258 M 270866 -21617 256 M 271123 -27772 257 M …

It's great to hear you're able to help with testing on the Mac platform. Though, this app isn't a product quality yet, I believe it'll become a product soon (maybe this year) 8) Anyway, I'd like to know how it performs for you. If it comes to be related to the UI app, I suggest to move the …

Added CoreMidi support. I expect we'll need dedicated CoreAudio module as well since PortAudio sucks calculating proper timings on every platform I tested it and very likely will fail on Mac. 🙁 On the other hand, CoreAudio should give us excellent timing (at least the docs promise that).

Things are changing. mt32emu.dll included in current builds isn't a DMusic synth anymore, so it can't be registered using rundll32 and DllRegisterServer. It's still a Win32 app, therefore it can't be properly installed using .INF file on x64 system. And perhaps there's no need to register the driver …

UAC _is_ supported, don't worry. But the message you mentioned relates to the fact the installer doesn't register any packages in the system registry. You can read about it more in the win 7 app compatibility help page. At least, I didn't find the installer performs any badly regardless of the …

As you can see from sources, only ROMs with known (hardcoded) size / sha1 digest are supported, and currently there're only 2 sets of ROMs available. The plan is to add many more ROM infos and to make emulation distinctive depending on each ROM set.

Current build of Qt-based GUI-enabled mt32emu for Win32. https://github.com/downloads/sergm/munt_devel/mt32emu-qt_2011-12-10.zip It needs installed and working mt32emu MIDI driver, though it's included and accompanied with trivial drvsetup.

This is really strange to me since KG and I crunch almost all out of amp levels emulation. Errors were about +-1 both …
