Well I can confirm that it was version 10 that got the Wing Commander fix as I have version V009 and get the crash at the intro fireworks. I wonder how many version of the chip are out there?

I believe 010 is the latest for the Z8 mcu. I have not found yet any newer versions than that.

Hello keropi, could you send me a copy of fw v.010 for midi quest? I want to try to build my own, as it not cheap and hard to find it on market. Thank you

I used my midi quest in ms dos for a while but I want to use under dos but most of times ,other sound cards give their midi port conflito with music quest.
Is there a sound card that can avoid this?

there is no trick, just make sure your soundcard does not use port330 for mpu or completely disable the soundcard mpu
how this can be done varies from card to card, there is no universal instructions

Thank you guys for the cable pinout scheme! Just got a RA-50 working flawlessly with a IH9MQ9 v.010
A quick reminder for those who decide to change the female to a male connector, please (obviously!) invert the side pins! This will save you a couple hour of troubleshooting 😜
