I've been trying to get good MIDI working through DOSBox for a while now. After experiencing what a game could sound like when running it through ScummVM, I'm wanting the same sound experience from DOSBox. Unfortunately, not matter what I try, I can't get DOSBox to use the soundfont or wavetable that ScummVM can use.

The following video shows what I mean. However, it should be pointed out, my .conf file has changes since I posted the video. In this video, the first run is using ScummVM and the second run is using DOSBox.

After posting the video, I tried the patched version from the following link:
DOSBox and MIDI music

My Midi section of my conf file now reads:
[midi]
mpu401=intelligent
mididevice=synth
midiconfig=FluidR3_GM.SF2

Still, the DOSBox midi sounds exactly the same. I'm running Windows 8. FluidR3_GM.SF2 is a good working soundfont that I placed in the DOSBox folder.

Is there any help for me? Is it possible to get this ScummVM midi sound out of DOSBox?

If you need any other information from me, please let me know.
