One more #RolandMT32 song, as a treat. The intro to #Sierra's Space Quest 3.
MPU-401AT, MT-32, and an AWE64, all direct capture.
I'm super happy with my new setup!
Also, this song absolutely slaps.

Good morning. I am waking up to find some MIDI issue in one of my 86Box machines. It seems 86Box broke or changed something with a recent code update.
Took me a few minutes to figure this out. The Soundblaster 16 is now set to an MPU-401 address of 0x300, while 0x330 is still being used by the Roland MT-32 emulation. Windows 3.1 is satisfied using the 0x300 address after I changed its settings to use it, while DOS games like "The Secret of Monkey Island" are still working fine with the MT-32 music emulation. Before that, I had simply turned off the SB16's MIDI address altogether. Oh, well... maybe this new setting really does make more sense. 😉
Happy retro gaming, everybody!

Holy cow! ... I never realized STUNTS had an MT-32 soundtrack! This is quite a different beast compared to the old IBM PC Speaker. Of course, I knew about Adlib and Soundblaster. But not this! :blobfearful:

If you were a fan of the Roland MT-32, you’ll love the MIDI Blaster that JP built and the devices that inspired it! #generalmidi #midi #mt32 https://hachyderm.io/@prcutler/114971198879894365

Just some random testing with my #MiyooMiniPlus on #OnionOS with #retrorach|s #ScummVM core.
#LucasfilmGames / #LucasArts #EGA and #VGA games with #Adlib work absolutely perfect.
#MT32 emulation with the #Fatboy sound font through #fluidsynth is terribly slow. < 15 fps
Talkie versions work great. Also no problems with #SVGA games.
There seems to be a bottleneck somewhere in the MIDI implementation

So, we've been having the plumbing installed at @leigh_hackspace and that's given me a bit of spare time to work on a small side project. This is a Pentium III laptop running Windows 98SE. It's a rather nice machine with one foot in all worlds. CD-ROM, Floppy, USB 1, Serial, 98SE and a good (late) DOS mode.
I've done some work on it's DOS side and it's now a nice little playing machine for later games that aren't too CPU picky.
I've also added my MT32-Pi using a RS232-USB cable and a nice pair of Altec Lansing speakers. SoftMPU over serial works great where it's supported. Monkey Island and Frontier work, First Encounters does not, but First Encounters works fine on plain Sound Blaster.
This is now a nice little toy for downtime. 🙂
