I've been trying to get the external MPU-401 port on my Ensoniq Soundscape S2000 to work in DOS. So far it will only use the internal wavetable synth and not send any MIDI commands to the external port.
I've copied the SNDSCAPE directory from my Windows 95 machine to the DOS machine and altered AUTOEXEC.BAT. The card does now initialize correctly and it works in DOS, it only complains during bootup that it cannot find SYSTEM.INI (which of course does not exist on this machine).
Running the same card (in a different machine) under Windows 95 I have to select which MIDI option to use: either the internal wavetable or the external port.
Is there a way to do this in MS-DOS? A switch in SSINIT.EXE maybe? Or can I alter the SNDSCAPE.INI to change this?
