Hey guys, i don't know what i'm missing but i'm trying to make these devices work altogether without problems.
Well they do work, but since the NEC XR385 and the Roland MT-32 are sharing the MPU at 330 port on a Yamaha OPL3SA3 card, in some games they will play together. For instance, on Monkey Island i can hear the NEC XR385 in MT-32 emulation and the MT-32 at the same time. I'm using the OPL3SA as mixer.
Even if i use an external mixer how about those games where i need Sound Blaster and MT-32 at the same time? Since the NEC and SB will play together, then the NEC will again be in MT-32 mode playing with the real MT-32.
What are solutions for this?
1-As far as i know, wavetable connector shares the same port as the MPU-401, so i can't assign a different port for the NEC DB. Right?
2-Other solution will be using a SW60XG where i can set its individual port, but it will take an additional ISA slot i need.
3-Any way to stop the NEC going into MT-32 mode?
Help will be deeply appreciated.
