PXR MIDI Player for macOS version 0.99.0 has been released and it's a big one!

Lots of major performance improvements and many new features.

One of my favourites is the new editable mixer. MT-32 mode has also been improved.

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!

Just for fun: I mixed the MT-32 and Adlib versions of the intro music from the MS-DOS port of Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone.

I call it the Double DAC'n remix: https://youtu.be/XF01L4GBIos

My Roland #MT32 started randomly displaying “Memory corruption” errors on its screen. Is it dying? Should I replace the capacitors? (avoided it for a while as I’m too bad at soldering)

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!

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
