Is there any development on Munt by either Kingguppy or Canadacow?
I think both KingGuppy and Canadacow are busy doing other things?! Last info that was posted was KingGuppy had done some updates to the codebase for SCUMMVM source set but these were not 'ported'/copied over to the Munt driver. Canadacow was working on a rather cool looking configuration panel which looked similar to a real MT32 but was concerned that as he had used .NET maybe people wouldn't accept it?! Either way it's been quiet for ages 🙁 but hey it's their lives and time so it's whatever they can manage!
Still here.... still kicking. I lost contact with KingGuppy for some reason. He never signs on to instant messenger anymore so I haven't spoken with him in forever.
Good to see you're alive. Are you still developing on Munt?
I'm still alive, but I haven't done any real work on Munt in months. As far as I remember, the scummvm and Munt trees are currently in sync. I've got some local changes which attempt to bring some sanity to the time-based calculations, but I didn't quite crack it. I'm at the stage where it doesn't seem possible to improve the emulator in a reasonable amount of time without digital samples, and nobody's yet been able to help with building something to get them.
Same question. More then a year later.
I know canadacow did some work on BLIT.
Any more progress?
I'm expecting the arrival of some hardware for logging the digital output of the MT-32 this week. I'm quite excited to start working on the emulator again with the ability to get provably correct results.
It might take a while to get things working, but if all goes well I'll post some digital samples of a real MT-32 here.
Good news. Keep up the great work!
Nice to see you're alive and kicking, and good news indeed.
Good luck!
Just a quick update: I have the hardware, and it's now theoretically working (beta firmware, USB buffering issues... eek). I just have to hook it up to my MT-32.
Problem: Installed most recent (0.1.3) build of win32 drivers of MUNT with both MT32 ROMs. They install but for some reason it doesn't show up in my MIDI Devices list.
Under Device Manager, it's there (no yellow symbol) but upon closer inspection the description says
No drviers are installed for this device.
I check the Driver File Details on the third tab, all three files are there...
What's going on?
(I'm running WinXP SP2)
@KinGuppy: Great! If any help is needed, like sample analyzing, let me know.

I had the same problem and it took some googling to find out what was going on. It turned out that when reinstalling sound card drivers windows adds an additional registry key for wave and midi devices. The problem is that the limit is 10 devices and when that limit is hit, you will not get new midi or sound devices no matter what you install.
Just open your registry, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32 and delete midi2,3,4,etc. and mixer2,3,4,etc. You should just leave midi1 and mixer1. Check to see if they are the same but they most probably are all duplicate entries. After you have deleted the redundant entries, restart your computer, uninstall munt, and install it again. It should now be listed in the midi devices.
I don't think I want to remove my existing devices. (MIDI yoke, Maple Tools, EDIROL PCR aka my MIDI controller keyboard, Yamaha S-YXG50 v4, Roland VSC, MSGS (maybe), and my SB Audigy 2 synths+SW synth)
Then just skip MUNT's WinMIDI driver and use one of the CVS builds of DOSBox which have the MUNT aspect of SCUMMVM integrated. You'll just need to drop the PCM files into your dosbox folder and make sure the munt settings in your dosbox.conf are appropiately set.

As I read it you don't have to to make it work...
Here's the first digital rip - ~16 seconds from the MI2 intro:

To view/play back using Audacity, do the following:
Note: I haven't yet checked for errors, this is just the very first semi-successful capture I've managed.
Cool thing, sounds nice 😀
Impressive, that sounds much better than the previous versions. Keep up the good work!
I thought it was MUNT also, but after rereading the thread I worked out that it's a real MT32 recorded digitally.
