I realize that an MT-32 is best for Sierra games, but some of them ostensibly support General Midi. Is it actually supposed to work?
I ask because I have an xr385 on a CT2230. I have it set up properly in windows 95 and its dos shell. Hexen plays fine, GM definitely works, and there are no hanging notes thankfully. But when I tried Quest for Glory 1 VGA... well it tries to work but sounds more like a John Cage concert than anything else. If I switch to SB music the FM synth sounds just like I remember it.
General MIDI is listed in the INSTALL program, and it's checked off as "supported", so I think it should work. I've googled the various GM drivers for Sierra games and haven't found one for QFGVGA.
Any thoughts, besides "get a roland"?
