First of all, great work Kinguppy!

Okay, I use Dosbox 0.63 in combination with Munt 0.1.2, and I was wondering how good the support is for old games like Monkey Island 2.

In other words, what are the current flaws of the emulator project? I mean it's still only version 0.1.2...

I tried a few things, but it seems like it does sound a bit different in comparison with a true mt-32 recorded mp3.

Thanks (though the lion's share of praise should go to Canadacow for starting the project).

Almost everything that's documented is implemented as specified (except where the documentation is wrong). Unfortunately there's no documentation available for the internals of the MT-32's sound generation, so much of the emulator is derived from painstaking analysis of analogue samples. There's also quite a bit of approximation and guesswork involved.

The emulation is improving all the time, and 0.1.3 will sound much more accurate. It's delayed while I work on getting the envelope generation right.
