Re: Is there a list of games composed on MT-32 (OLD vs new), or a list of which synths were used for which DOS games?

I guess it was already mentioned, but the community has tried to capture a list here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MT-32-compatible_computer_games It really is intended to capture all games that support the MT-32 family, as well as whether or not the soundtracks were originally composed …

@Mok Thanks for the clarification. I believe 'a simple resampling bridge' may appear a source of enough change in the frequency spectra. And the overdrive distortions as well. But the real issue with the 'muffled' sounding which MoM doesn't really want to hear is exactly the imperfection of the …

Also I'm curios now in which way HooT uses the munt library, as it sounds very crisp, and doesn't have the problems DOSBox has. I'll ask on the HooT thread above :D Hoot uses munt directly without any changes, there's a simple resampling bridge (the source code is included with hoot, as they cannot …

Universe doesn't support anything except adlib. A few years back I extracted music and sound code to make a hoot driver and there was no trace of any code or external file accessing mpu-401.

Then MT32.DRV is a weird name for the driver. :) Yeah, but he didn't write the tracker nor the driver himself :) TBH I don't think anyone cared much about sending instrument names to the synth... I vaguely remember some games sent random trash instead of names. Fix pushed. Thanks! This fixed minor …

ok: Awesome. I think Barry set the master volume a bit too loud. Making it down to 70 prevents overdrives on my CM-64. Overdrives in Munt is another matter. He set reverb ROOM/7/7 at the beginning and DELAY/7/7 further that's quite loud too, and it is mixed down with the LA32's output in integer ( …

I tried using an old Accolade player for the MUS format and they didn't play.. Is there any way to convert them? Most likely at least 2 of these are too old (early version of accolade format). Lost in LA uses newer version but I don't know what's supported by that player. And no, I don't know of …

What are 'Hoot' drivers and how did you extract that raw music from DAT files? Hoot is a crappy closed-source japanese emulator for various sound systems (including various obscure japanese machines, arcades and poor emulation of pc sound systems). In short it's a simplistic player for game music …

There is a lot of crackling on the real mt32 module (old version) in this whole song. (similar to new munt) On the real cm32l module the crackling starts from about 1 minute 45 seconds but is mostly less noticeable than in mt32. Thanks for testing. I guess this might become a victim of perfect …

I got turned onto (pun not intended) some of Accolade's older titles, such as Les Manley and Altered Destiny. Their music is stored in DAT files, but I have no idea how to extract it. I tried a lot of general programs but no avail. I can record using DOSBox (and have), but there are reasons why …

Hey Sergm, I've noticed a song that started to crackle for me in Hoot using recent versions of munt. I've converted my hoot driver to dos and tried a recent dosbox with newest munt and it crackles too. It's a FOFT title song by Barry Leitch from an unreleased pc port of the game. Attached is the dos …

I pushed a change removing emulation of that bug, since I was unable to reproduce it on my CM-32L. I couldn't find anything we're doing that could cause the bug to be hit when it wouldn't be on the real thing. Mok did double-check to make sure that he'd accurately documented the bug at the time, so …

After updating to latest git source (with modified reverb code), I'm getting crash in the hoot driver I use. I traced it to revmodel being called with uninitialized/random scaletuning value (negative one). It seems reverbmodel->reset is called before initial setting of reverb parameters.

Hm, so how can I emulate a LAPC-1? You need to use proper roms ie. CM32L_CONTROL.ROM and CM32L_PCM.ROM instead of mt32 ones.

You are probably using MT-32 roms while the game only supports LAPC-I. That or Ykhwong's build differs somehow from the current munt. I tried it briefly and I hear the shooting sounds (I'm not a fan of the game so it was just in the very beginning).
