I'm not sure this is the right place to ask this but my question is very simple. Which would be better for PQ1 VGA Roland MT-32 or General Midi?
I prefer MT-32 on most if not all of the earlier Sierra titles.

Both are similar yet different.....Ahh the choices one must face!
I'd use GM for the VGA remake, and MT-32 for the original. IIRC, the older AGI versions used the "bugs" found in the original MT-32, and sound wonky on the newer rev.
That said, the PQ1 VGA remake sounds AWESOME with Crisis GM 3.0.1!
I tried the SQ1 VGA remake using both versions of MT-32, and they're missing a lot of the soundtrack that plays fine in GM.
The original supports PC speaker and Tandy at best I believe 😀
Indeed, Tandy and PC Speaker.
Yep. No sound card support for AGI.
Really!? When did they start adding MT-32 support? I thought I remembered a few that used it...
I'm getting too old and forgetful... 😒

Well with Police Quest is was Police Quest II that they supported MT-32.
PQ, the poor stepchild series of Sierra.
