My PI based MT32 built by DREAMBLASTER arrived today and after installing the Rom files i can combine the intelligent mode of the MPU-401 card by KEROPI with it. It's my first time hearing SQ3 and many other games with that sound outside of YouTube and Co. 🤩🤩😁🥰 Actually i am re-organizing the power …

Thanks, but as I told, the original drivers work just fine. I just wanted to point out, that the card doesn't work with unisound, although it is listed as working. Btw. it would be really nice, if unisound code would be open sourced, so people could try to make their improvements themselves. It is …

Hi! I have here a Terratec TT1816-S/N soundcard with AD18max10JS chip. It is almost the same as AD1816JS as far as I know and both chips seem to be listed as supported by unisound. Unfortunately the card seems not to be detected. Original drivers do work properly however. It's not critical, but if …

Arrived today, a Microstar MS5169 super 7 mobo with K6-2 300 MHz CPU and 64 MB SDRAM. I was looking at the MSI website support page and it looks like based on the available BIOS versions and this version 2 PCB that it will only support up to (I think) a 400 MHz K6-2 CPU, as support for the higher …

Sorry for double-post but did someone managed to get a cf (Master) and a CDrom drive (slave) working together using only a (non-pnp) soundcard's IDE port? Currently the cf only seems to work combined with the Xtide Bios attached on a network card. When I connect a hdd as slave instead of the CD …

I got this card recently too but no matter what i try....i can´t get a HDD as master and a Mitsumi 4x IDE as slave running. I also use the XTIDE Bios and it only recognizes port 170h.

In the meantime I have made further progress in the xtide BIOS, but only the 8 bit mode works to boot the Compact Flash. The ESS is set to 170h. I would like to operate the CD-ROM drive on the same cable (slave) .... has anyone ever gotten cf and CD to work together on a sound card?
