Re: Need to Keep One OPL card

FM-Pak/A is here: http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:1P_yJYTGDTQJ:cd.textfiles.com/pdsl/00GLOBAL.TXT+FM-Pak/A&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us&client=firefox-a http://cd.textfiles.com/pdsl/OTHER/DOS/MIDI/ Though, I see no indication that these are the IMFC patches that the FB01 is lacking that would make …

Re: SC-55 MKII vs. SCC-1

I based my answer to his question from these statements. I thought so. :) My experience may have been a result of the system that I was using the S-MPU in, rather than an issue with the interface itself. Since I never tested it in another PC (and no longer have the S-MPU, for that matter), I can't …

Do not buy an S-MPU/AT to use a game-compatible intelligent midi interface, it doesn't work very well. Is this generalization based on a particular statement that I made? I might need to offer some additional clarification if so... ;) Thanks for the info what interface should I get if I intend to …

Re: Best System Configuration For 90's PC Games?

Also if I have a MT-32 module, where does that fit into all of this? Unless you plan on purchasing a dedicated MIDI interface, you'll want to connect the MT-32 to the Soundscape, through use of a joystick-to-MIDI adapter The Soundscape is the *only* card that I am aware of that acknowledges " …

Re: Gravis Ultrasound MAX Tracker Demonstration

Alas, an epic battle over before ever begun... :depressed: I appreciate your points. Bear in mind that my own GF1/EMU8000 comparisons are limited to what I've heard/tested. So, while I've found that many of the "vanilla," 4-channel MODs sound better to my ears via 8k playback ('nice' and 'crisp,' as …

Oops! :happyhappy: There's always one, and it had to be you! :happyhappy: I know. I'm sorry! :lol: I very-much appreciate the recordings you've made (and the time it took), regardless. No freakin way. Have you actually tried EMU8000 playback with Impulse Tracker? Pick an Amiga-created MOD, make …

The thing I love the most about these? The hardware interpolation on the samples. To me, it's unmatchable by any other sound card. The EMU8000's interpolation betters that of the GF1... ...I refuse to test them as the EMU8000 does not support sustained loops nor 8-bit samples (8-bit samples get …

Re: Ye Olde Synthe i486

A few more additions – very likely the last. I've installed a PCI/ISA-bracket CF-to-IDE adapter, and am now using a 2GB CompactFlash card as the primary hard-drive. I've installed an external S/PDIF bracket, thereby gaining use of the AWE32's digital OPL3 and EMU8000 output. This necessitated the …

Re: To save the daughterboards!

Very nice job, Termynuss! I'm still acquiring components to complete the Elektor design, the plans for which can be found in this thread . Certainly not the cheapest boondoggle, to say the least. To have worked your own design, and for less than thirty-five dollars, is quite the accomplishment. :)

Re: Ye Olde Synthe i486

One slight change, not that anyone should care... I've removed the PAS16, along with the external SCSI connector, and have installed an AWE32 (CT2760). The SCD-15 was also transferred over to the AWE32, and I have yet to experience the note-hanging issue common to many Creative cards. Fifty-cents …

Re: Keep DBs off SB16s!!

Crap daughtercards like the Waveblaster... The Wave Blaster is actually one of the more interesting/capable daughterboards. It's equivalent to an E-MU SoundEngine (Proteus), and shares more than a few similarities with ye old MT-32. From a gaming perspective, you might look elsewhere, but otherwise …

Re: A word about Sound Blaster 16s and FM Synthesis

Posted on 2007-02-18, 08:06

If accurate FM synthesis means anything, if you are using a Sound Blaster, stick with the early Sound Blaster 16s. What's funny is that, if you read those two patents, it's essentially claimed that Yamaha's FM is inaccurate. In any case, have you noticed any real difference between the OPL and CQM …
