Hi there, as far as using waverables in DOS games go, is there any significant difference between the Dreamblaster X2 hanging off a PCIMIDI ISA MPU card and an original GUS or Orpheus II with integrated GUS onboard? As I understand it, both have decent presets, and sound sets readily available to download and use, and importantly both allow me to load up custom wavetables with my own samples.
If I’ve already got sound on my system that works on most if not all of my games, and I want midi out to drive my external sound modules, would it essentially be redundant to go the more expensive Orpheus II? Better to grab the PCMIDI with an X2 or X2GS?
