Re: UNISOUND - Universal ISA PnP Sound Card Driver for DOS v0.75e

Is there an easy to access and comprehensive list of chipsets the program can initialize? A table with chipsets and degree of support for them would be great, something like what DosBox page has for games.. You can find the supported chips in the UNISOUND.TXT file present in every ZIP release ( …

I have a question about the AWE64 support. If I use UNISOUND to initialise it, and after that I use Creative's mixerset app (to have a graphical UI to set the mixer or to set controls that UNISOUND does not support) then after that UNISOUND can no longer see the AWE64 even though it still works …

@Shreddoc I'm sorry, I've been busy these days. Anyway, that OPL4 info has nothing to do with this. Your YMF704C is a totally different chip, it has builtin MIDI interpreter. MIDI signal can be directly fed to pin 35 (RXD). That is what is used on your card. The point is in the digital sound routing …

I just wanted to remind you about this, in case there was anything you could do in future. Basically, the ability to switch between the Internal MPU (which is the card's own MIDI chip) and External MPU (Joystick Port out), if possible. Unfortunately the workaround of muting FM does not affect the …

As you've added support for the Roland Super MPU II, doesn't it need a TSR? I always believed that it wasn't just about initialization, but also some resident thing in background... Btw, do you know if it supports the Intelligent Mode? Never seen any exact confirmation of that. Unfortunately I …

Small update: Tool updated to v0.75e Changelog: Bugfix: AWE upgrade card CT1920 was misidentified as a regular AWE32. Added support for Roland Super MPU II PnP MIDI card initialization. Changed PnP detection process slightly. Now it is faster and more compatible with existing PnP management (like …

@640K!enough Yes, you're right, I know the RDP may change with Unisound, it's a compromise I had to take one day. At first, Unisound was created without PnP BIOS in mind (486 or lower). After some versions (internal, months ago), I thought of adding some PnP BIOS detection, but I realized after …

Great, as usual :) An absolute must to have. Btw UNISOUND was mentioned in our first AWE64 Legacy review on YouTube, although in Russian, but with English subtitles. Thank you!

Hi! Great piece of software! Thank you. I used it on a SBC with a soldered VIA Eden ESP8000 CPU (Nehemiah core) with CLE266/VT8235M chipset and it worked perfectly! Finally, I can change the multiplier now. And tried it again on a different SBC with a VIA Eden 500 (Esther core, ID(6,D,0)) with VIA …

What's Intel ICU and where can I find it? It's an old PnP configuration manager for DOS from Intel, but it's good detecting problems in header/data checksums. It needs to be installed. If you want, you can install it, test, report and then uninstall / delete it: https://mega.nz/file/2RBFzSiB# …

I also own an YMF-719E-S card labeled ATC-6631. Would you please add it to the tool? Yes, It'll be added to the next version. It's been a busy week...

If I try to set IRQ to 7 i cannot get several games (Settlers2, Warcraft, Blackthorne,Innocent Until Caught) to work. Autodetect fails in Setup Routines, Only FM Syth is working if Adlib is selected. If I set IRQ5 everything works fine. That is a limitation of the card (The same issue happens with …

Oh, that is good news. Do I supply unisound with the resource configuration then? Or does it take that from the GUS ini? I use these lines to initialize my GUSpnp: Well, if you only have the GUS PnP plugged, and you only need classic GUS (without wavetable music) you only need 2 lines, ULTRASND …

There isn't much other information that should be required. Basic support should not be complicated to add to your software, and all of the relevant features are governed by the registers of the CS4237. This may change, but the current prototype uses ISA PnP ID CSC7537, like many other CS4237-based …

I read a bit about the Orpheus card, I think it'll be easy to add the specific support via Crystal's registers in theory. I would add on-the-fly switch between internal CrystalFM and external Yamaha OPL3 FM, S/PDIF activation, or any other register-configurable setting. Also ability to disable/ …

Replying so I get notified on this topic... Also: does it already support Keropi's Orpheus card? I have to test when I come home... As the card has a Crystal CS4237B it should work out of the box, if the EEPROM is standard (and the VendorID is known). Anyway I guess it could lack some features …
