Re: Mt-32 music player?

Posted on 2017-08-09, 13:10

Notation Player 3 is what I use for Windows which is free software. It's neat in that you see all the music as sheet music while it plays. Of course, there are many other MIDI players out there. http://www.notation.com/DownloadNotationPlayer.php

Re: Roland CM-32LN

Posted on 2017-08-08, 21:39

AFAIK, the CM-32LN has the faster vibrato (same as the CM-500). This will result in certain instruments sounding a bit different when vibrato is used; Space Quest III intro for example. OK, then I should probably plan on keeping my MT-32 since I would assume it does not have this difference. Now …

Roland CM-32LN

Posted on 2017-08-08, 19:31

I found one of these for what seemed to be a reasonable price compared to all the CM-32L units that I have seen for sale so I went ahead and purchased it. It's on its way to me from Japan so I don't have it in my possession yet. It looks to be in new condition and has been verified to work with no …

Re: YAMAHA MU80 vs MU50

I really like the idea of tweaking the output which the Korg NS5R offers so I think that unit is on my list of sound modules to search for. The Akai SG01k does sound a bit unique so I think I may search for a good deal on one of those. Thanks for the info on these.

The AG-10 isn't a particularly common sound module. They're not really in demand though, so when they do pop up they won't break the bank. I paid about $50 USD back when I bought mine a year ago. Honestly, though I wouldn't worry too much about Korg modules. You mention you have a Roland SC-55 and …

Thanks for all that info Shponglefan! Yes I now see what you are talking about after listening to those recordings. I listened to some recordings of the AG-10 from youtube and it sounds better than the NS5R. I went on eBay to get an idea at how much an AG-10 costs and could not find a single one. …

Re: YAMAHA MU80 vs MU50

I was thinking of, for example, a Korg NS-5R or NX-5R (NS-5R with Yamaha XG-compatible daughterboard). I listened to the Korg NS-5R on youtube and although it did not sound as sophisticated as a Roland and Yamaha sound module it did have a more basic console-ish sound to it if you know what I mean. …

I have not seen or heard anything about Korg sound modules but I am fairly new to the whole MIDI subject so that is not surprising. I will have to look into them but I will note the possibility of them not being great with general MIDI.

Re: YAMAHA MU80 vs MU50

As it turns out the MU80 is about $10 to $20 more than the MU50 and the MU100 is about $20 to $30 more than the MU80. Beyond the MU100 the price starts to jump in higher amounts. Looks like the best deal is the MU100 so I just went ahead and picked one up. I think between an MT-32, SC-55, and MU100 …

I would think that the MU50 is OK as well but there is not much reference info or demos on it being used with games that support MIDI. Most people seem to have acquired the MU80 which in some games sounds better than the SC-55 which I recently got along with an MT-32.

Re: Roland SC-55 and MIDI compatibility

Posted on 2017-07-26, 19:21

Thanks for the info. I got paranoid earlier before I read your comments and just went ahead and got another SC-55 that is firmware 1.21 as this one seems to be the perfect one to get from the reading that I have done. I guess I will just sell the other one to someone. 🤣

YAMAHA MU80 vs MU50

Posted on 2017-07-25, 14:36

I have seen the MU80 used with general MIDI supported games often on YouTube. The MU50 costs a bit less than the MU80 but I know it has fewer features. Is the MU50 adequate to play games with general MIDI or are the extra features of the MU80 needed for that?

Roland SC-55 and MIDI compatibility

Posted on 2017-07-25, 13:52

I just purchased (but have not received yet) a SC-55 (firmware 1.10). Shortly after buying it I read from an unverified source that some of the early SC-55 units were not completely MIDI compliant. They said that early units were only labeled "GS Standard" on the front where the later ones said that …
