There is a new version of VSBHDA out which now supports 16-bit protected mode games. I successfully tested it on Jazz Jackrabbit and Tyrian 2k on an i5 8th gen Dell laptop with Intel HDA . Thanks to Baron von Riedesel's spectacular efforts, the sound is working and we have another hurdle overcome …

It looks like the source code in the SOFTWARE folder on the CD may be helpful in figuring out how the sound bank loading works, but I'm not a programmer, and without the source for 94DINIT I would never be able to guess what they are doing differently. I was taking a look at that; unfortunately, …

So, I am at a loss here. Does anyone have ideas? I figured it out. The transmitted data was always being sent on the serial line, rather than midi-out. The reason was there was another severed trace; between the switch and ic18: C0644AAF-FAFF-47F4-B620-C9470018D6B1.jpeg Ic18 acts like a mux; in the …

I am receiving no MIDI output on the MIDI OUT port (needed for dumping the individual instrument parameters and sequences), and I am trying to figure out why. It doesn't respond to any sysex data requests that are listed in the owners manual; I double checked I am using the correct device ID (0x10, …

[edit2] Okay I got it working correctly this time. Use the pinout reference for the I2S/SPDIF jack I posted above and connect the 1.63v sclk to the DACs S/PDIF input. What pinout reference is he referring to here?? I am making a SPDIF board for my Montego II and I need the pinout for that jack. It …

If you own an MSX, then I highly recommend you purchase a MIDI-PAC. It translates MSX PSG and OPLL (MSX-MUSIC) into MIDI in real time. Meaning you can play almost any MSX game in MIDI. Also fully customizable so you can use basically any MIDI compatible device. https://shop.supersoniqs.com/en/home/ …

I think XGEditor will solve this problem easily, but I can't seem to find the PLG150-DR plugin or voice definition files anywhere; Superdeadite, do you have the PLG150-DR CD?
