Hi everyone. My question for AWE-32 owners (any revisions) with installed Daughterboard (any model). In some games in some cases WT midi through DB card on AWE32 i have trouble. Some instruments wrong, some dissappear, some lags and even locksup. This strange thing happens on both of my AWE-32 CT2760 and PnP CT3990 and with all DB cards (i collect them).
All these wrongs goes away with my SB16 CT2230 but that card have same CT1741/1745A chipset and same CSP (CT1748).
Can someone test this? All these bugs have phantom behavior in many titles but i hear it every time at least two games.
1. Hexen - map02 seven portals. At first second of midi playback one instrument lockup and playing constantly.
2. Hocus Pocus - title midi and midi at first level of first episode. Probably in this game i have troubles sometimes with all melodies.
I confused and think to buy SB16 ASP MCD + Goldfinch =(
What wrong with AWE32 wavetable interface? Help please...
sorry for my bad english.
P.S. A few minutes ago i tested these games with my Yamaha MU-10 (DB50XG in external box) hooked to AWE joystick port - situation is the same 🙁
Maybe this is hardware bug in MPU-401 interface on all AWE-32 cards?
May be better change it to AWE64 Gold (CT4540)? I heared that these cards have more compatibility to older SB model than AWE32.
