Re: Raspberry Pi 3 SoftSynth Box [Buildlog]

Great work. That really looks awesome, and I love the wooden case. I tried to get something similar working myself based on a previously posted rpi2 project, but kept getting annoyed at the midi ports changing randomly at each bootup for some reason. I must admit that I just don't know linux well …

Re: MT-32 : Exc Checksum Error

In my experience, there are certain games that are speed sensitive for the Roland MT-32 and GM modules as well. Certain sound cards do that as well. What I suggest is to get an MPU-401 card in place of the sound card for the Roland MT-32 and the GM modules. My Sound Blaster 16 WaveEffects CT4170 ( …

MT-32 : Exc Checksum Error

Hi guys, I was wondering about this error which I had often with my AWE64, and haven't seen with my AWE32. In both instances I was using softMPU with the delaysysex option. Is this an issue with hardware MPU solutions as well on fast machines? (eg: Roland MPU-401 or MusicQuest cards) Or only with …

Star Control II with Gravis Ultrasound

Hi guys, I am trying to get this game to work with my Gravis Ultrasound Pnp card with no luck. I will admit that I also have a non-pnp AWE32 in the same machine. That machine being a K6-3+ 450. The game locks up instantly no matter what option I chose: starcon2 /s:SBLASTER or /s:GRAVIS in fact, the …

Re: AWE64 Gold and MT-32 = Exc Checksum Error

For what it is worth, I recommend keeping the AWE64, but using a dedicated MPU-401 card (or clone) for your MIDI interface. I have two retro game computers: 486dx4 & pentinum III. They both use AWE64 Golds. One has a genuine Roland MPU-401AT. The other has a HardMPU card. I have had no issues with …

Re: AWE64 Gold and MT-32 = Exc Checksum Error

A little late here but I have the exact same problem. My setup is a AWE64 value CT4520 and a K6-3+ 400 mhz, like you I tried to set multiplier at 2x with 66mhz bus speed and L1 and L2 cache disabled. Still getting Exc. checksum error in several games including Colonization and Dune 2. I don´t have …

Re: AWE64 Gold and MT-32 = Exc Checksum Error

Anyone have this problem before with specifically an AWE64? I have used my MT-32 through an AWE64 Gold in my 486DX4 100Mhz without issue. What I don't understand is that it doesn't seem to be a speed issue since even if I slow down my CPU to an absolute crawl I still have the same problem. I even …

AWE64 Gold and MT-32 = Exc Checksum Error

Hi guys, so I've amassed a decent collection of ISA soundcards and recently upgraded to an AWE64 Gold from various versions of an AWE32. Now I keep getting the dreaded EXC CHECKSUM ERROR when loading older games such as Wing Commander or Dune 2. I used SoftMPU with the DELAYSYSEX option, and even …
