I've finally gotten around to posting a new Win32 binary. I apologize for not posting the source code simultaneously. Right now I'm not completely confident it won't compile on any other system right out of the box, and I haven't had the chance to make the necessary changes, so bear with me.

Things fixed in this version are:

  • Volume balance
    Some random bugs and memory leaks (in prep for a driver release)
    Sample aliasing
    Some of the clicking experienced when playing low frequency PCM sounds
    Further tuning of the Time Variant Filter

Some known issues that remain:

  • Amplitude envelope decay times are still not quite right
    Filter still needs tuning
    Random pops in some songs unrelated to high CPU usage
    Weak bass compared to the real MT-32 (I believe this is related to the reverb)

Ultima Underworld sounds much better now, I could hardly make out any differences to the original. Wing Commander 1 still poses some problems, especially during the Origin FX trailer. More detailed testing results later.
