I gave it to my brother a long time ago after I did a major system upgrade. Motherboard is Gigabyte GA-5AX. SUper 7 mobo, 3 ISA, 4 PCI, 1 AGP slot. It's a K6-2 450 processor, dual Voodoo2 SLI/Riva TNT video, SB AWE64 gold ISA card. Two PCI slots and two IsA slots empty. Looks like 192gb system …

Well, in the MT32 development thread someone mentioned rtp-midi. It looks like this will do EXACTLY what I need to do. I've successfully used the Microsoft GS synth on my desktop while running Dosbox on my laptop. So far it looks a lot easier than I thought it would be, which actually sort of ruins …

Just to be clear, do you mean only the mt32emu.dll MIDI driver will be abandoned soon? Will the mt32emu.exe still be supported?

Curse of the azure bonds appears to only support sound effects, and no music. As far as I can remember, there's very little music in ANY of the SSI gold box games apart from the introduction. Deleting the .cfg file from the game folder and then re-running start.exe (or st.bat or something along …

I originally started using the Windows midi driver to work around CPU usage issues, since both the DOSBOX emulation and the MT32 emulation share a single CPU. That's not as serious an issue now as it was a few years ago when I first started messing around with it.

I've got an interesting little experiment I'm going to perform. I've got an older Asus atom-based eeepc I was thinking about turning into a sort of meta-MT32. It's got Windows XP running + MUNT midi driver installed. My theory is that I could take two USB midi adapters and treat the eeepc exactly …

I can't get the mt32emu.exe to work either. I've got midiyoke installed, but I'm not able to hear anything... *edit* I'm getting tired of correcting myself. What MT32EMU calls port 1 is not the same as Midi Yoke's port 1. Midi yoke is listening on ports 1 - 8. I had to set MT32EMU to use port 0. Now …

THanks a bunch. I've gotten it installed in Windows 7, but the midi utilities for Windows Vista don't see it. I'll spend some time on it... *edit* It shows up in device manager, but I can't get any audio out of it. It shows up in dosbox if I run "mixer /listmidi", but none of the Windows midi picker …

This has probably been answered already, but I've been searching for some time and can't find any info on this. I"m using a DOSbox build that support MT-32 emulation, but D-Fend Reloaded 1.1.0 won't allow me to select mt32 as the midi type. Anyone know how to get this to work?

Is there a reasonably current Win32 midi driver for Munt reloaded? *edit* I found the repo. I see the source for the win32 driver, so I'll have to …

Use Timidity with GUS patches. EVERYTHING (that supports General Midi) has GUS support then!
