Ah so you somehow got a X2 with the default dream Soundbank, sorry about that it must have gotten mixed with the updated ones 🙁
About midi/digital balance it should not have been an issue at all - you also flashed the smaller DXP file as well, right? It's the mixer setup for the X2

Which one?

I installed PhilsComputerLab Preset for X3MB Buran.DXP first and then installed GUD_104.DXP after.

On a side note do you plan on having a mixer TSR or anything at any point? Something like this:

Would be super helpful than trying to deal with the ini. Should I post it in the Orphinit post instead? 😁

PhilsComputerLab Preset for X3MB Buran.DXP is the one to have flashed
no tsr mixers are planned (tbh I thought everybody hated them like I do 🤣 ) really it is weird you are having these issues... are you sure you are setting volumes correctly in the .INI ? some go backwards - meaning larger number is lower volume

Thanks, keropi, I am going to mess around some more with the mixer now that I flashed phil's on there last night

. And yes I hate TSRs but it might be helpful to have the ability so you can zero in your mix, save it and then never run it again... unless you need to make adjustments again.

So, I've been fooling around with the Crystal Windows 9x drivers in Ghidra, and found some interesting references in the decompiled code.
I wish I knew more about driver programming or x86 assembly, but this kinda looks like the CS4232 can support ADPCM, or at least has a reference to it in drivers:

let me know if you get his working on windows 2k/xp while playing with the drivers

That ADPCM is probably just WSS ADPCM that all WSS codecs support in addition to couple raw PCM formats.
