Hi, Sorry to say but you are wrong and it seems you have no idea about what SFZ format is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SFZ_(file_format) A real SFZ is a text file and not a binary one and is fundamentally different from SF2/SF2Pack. Here's a valid SFZ file for you to study: B3_bass_guitar.zip By …

This phenomenon is not Athlon 64 specific and has nothing to do with Cool 'n' Quiet. All 1 core/1 thread CPUs would behave the same. OP's Pentium 4 (as SW-SSG suggested) must be a Hyper Threading enabled CPU so it's a 1 core/ 2 threads variant. That's why it shows CPU usage somewhere between 50% - …

Falcosoft have you tried running it from right-clicked start -> command prompt (admin)? Thanks for your tip. It worked once but it's not very convenient. But the bigger problem is that when NTVDMx64 is installed sometimes even 64-bit admin command prompt/cmd.exe throws the same error: NTVDMx64_ …

I wanted to try the steps you suggested but the very first step requires Windows 7 or above and my laptop runs Windows Vista so I'm not sure that would give the right result. Then you can try Midi Yoke instead (If I remember right you should disable UAC to install this properly) : http://www.midiox …

You should determine where your problem is. For proper troubleshooting: 1. First try to play some MT-32 midi files locally with the player. This way you can make sure that you configured the Player + Munt VSTi part correctly. E.g. try this: SQ1MT.zip It should sound correct and at the beginning it …

Yeah, I meant something that can work with the plugin. OK, then the solution of the puzzle seems to be number 2 :). Some game will show the song title or other game information on the display and I always found it pretty cool. As I have said all that information is already displayed by the plugin, …

Is there any way of having the LCD display module of the MT-32 show up in the display. Only thing that I really miss. Would go perfect with MidiPlayer. I'm not really sure I understand what you want.

I'm getting strange results from PIII-600 Katmai, I can disable L2 cache in BIOS (no L1 option), Topbench drops from 453 to 69, and that's ok. But with SetMul disabling L2 via L2D I see no effect in speed. And after disabling L1 with L2 "enabled" I'm getting same 69 result. So, L1E L2E = 453, L1E …

The biggest problem with this NTVDMx64 solution is that it prevents running native x64 console applications (such as FAR file manager x64 version https://www.farmanager.com/download.php?l=en and all my own x64 console applications). While 16-bit programs work 64-bit console mode programs throw an …

For normal Midi file playback you should use the GM compatible Full/All profile (Channels 1-16) instead of Extended (Channels 1-10) or Basic (Channels 13-16). More info about this issue: Re: Falcosoft Soundfont Midi Player + Munt VSTi + BassMidi VSTi

If your BIOS does not have such Core disabling function you can use K10Stat to test Core disabling. It's available at the NB tab of K10Stat. Unfortunately it works only for the next warm reboot so it's not a permanent setting and requires a Windows reboot. The setting also cannot survive suspend/ …

Hi, Ok, now I understand your problem better. It's an implementation quirk of SC-VA that even the front-end of SC-VA does not display correctly. Namely SC-VA in GM2 mode only applies the GM2 drumset when you explicitly set drum channel's Bank MSB to 120 (it's right according to specification as I …
