SC-55 is the de-facto standard for General MIDI in DOS games. Most game music has been composed using a SC-55 and you will get a very balanced music. so I would get a SC-55 first. Then you can check out other modules and play around with them. You might prefer the way they sound, but it does depend …

Looks very very good! , but , surely someone has this module midi and we could say how it works with games, would have standard sound? If so it would be a good buy, but only if it is 100% compatible with games and if it sounds like GM or SC55

Also check the polarity. Most of the Roland equipment's polarity is reversed (positive on the outside, negative on the inside). Thanks , good data, seeing the photo of the power supply I think it says on the drawing down of words and the voltage at the center is negative, I think, but I'm not sure, …

Thanks jesolo , i was seeing that there is no upgrade post, I will ask what's new However, I'm not sure whether you can actually use this feature with an MT-32, due to the 5-pin MIDI DIN interface. You can, certainly, but it requires the use of a go-between to perform the 38400-baud serial -> 31250- …

Yeah if you have direct rips, the other ones I got were not original. They were downloaded off something else so they didn't fit on a real diskette because whoever packaged it added extra files. At least that's how it was in the case of X-Wing. However if you have both gateway and Xwing I'll take …
