This TSR will allow you to change the output mode of the Sound Blaster Pro card (and compatibles) before and during playback (in games and demos).
It assumes the card is set to IO port 220h.
The shortcut keys are as follows:
- F9 = Mono + Filter ON
- F10 = Stereo + Filter ON
- F11 = Mono + Filter OFF
- F12 = Stereo + Filter OFF
Keep in mind that the ONLY cards that I am aware of that support the user-defeatable output filter are the genuine Sound Blaster Pro and the Yamaha YMF71x cards.
The STEREO / MONO mode change should be applicable to all cards.
See Yamaha YMF71x SB Pro Mixer Bug Issue Fix for more info on tuning the Yamaha card's lowpass filter characteristics.
I wrote this TSR back in 1998 in Borland C++ 3.1, but cannot seem to find the sourcecode.
The TSR was successfully tested on a modified YMF719 and a SBPro CT1600.
Enjoy!
