What's the difference between the Multimedia Pro 16 ABI and ABO? According to some posts, they seem to use the same FCC ID MMSN850, but there's no information how to tell them apart.

I also installed the FB01 driver on there to see how it works since some of the games require MIDI channel 1 to be the main one. I got the real unit today as well and that works with it, …

I have a CM-500 but it seems to have a strange hanging note issue that is not caused by my MIDI interface (tried both an AWE32 and PCMIDI card—both my MT32 and SC55 work fine on both of these FYI). I notice it most often when I play Wing Commander 1, where if my ship gets damaged (causing a loud …
