Cheers mate, it's been a long time (about 1999) since I've done anything with DOS, so this forum has been a lifesaver.

The feature I'm most looking forward to from Unisound is being able to use MIDI emulation for the AWE32 and AWE64 sound cards, since the proprietary drivers don't work very well in DOS. I hope it comes true

JazeFox has already said that feature won't be implemented as it requires a TSR and UNISOUND is not a TSR

I see, so I hope someone else can implement a TSR for that.

the best your going to find is a copy of dos32awe and use that for protected mode games.

I didn't know that, thanks

Current version is: v0.82a (Download link at the end of this post).

I have a feature request please.

For CS423x (in my case, a CS4237B) would you please add a MONO IN adjustment for the volume? I know that this is functional with this card because I have it connected to the PC Speaker output on my motherboard and it works. In Windows 95, I can lower and raise the volume with said adjustment in the Windows volume control.

I tried with "/VP", but it seems to ignore that.

Thanks

Almost a year since last update. Hope JazeFox is OK. Love this gem. I'm eager to know if any update is soon to be released.
Recently acquired more ISA sound cards. I love to test the sound of them easily with Unisound. Question, can this card be added in the future? If not, its ok, these are the only ones left that I have that Unisound doesnt work:
JAZZ MVD1216B / OPTi 82C929A / Yamaha YMF701B-S.
Thanks

All of those cards are non-PnP so most unlikely to get any support.

I thought so too but at least the Jazz16 based cards are PnP according to dosdays.co.uk
It does require a non-resident initialization driver in config.sys though. And is not fully SB compatible, with other quirks under DOS.

I have absolutely no knowledge nor experience of these cards, which made me curious and looking for more info in the first place.

For opti you have the optimized drivers

test and check if work best for you. For me not, i open a Issue in 2020, but i lost my github account to contribute more

It is PnP only in the sense that it doesn't use jumpers to configure the resources, but not in the ISA Plug and Play 1.0 specification compliant way which came out sometime in 1995 while the Jazz predates that.

UNISOUND is self described as supporting some pre-PnP software configurable cards so it would be up to the creator on whether they would want to add more to that list

Gotcha, makes sense! 😀

JazeFox has mentioned more than once that he has no plans to add support for any more cards that are not ISA PnP-compliant, and has also requested that we not ask for such support. Asking repeatedly isn't likely to change his mind.
