Power supply for BOSS guitar pedals should work. Those you get brand new. Just make sure they can deliver enough amp. There is also one called Roland PSB which will work with anything up to 2 amps. I belive it's the psb I have posted a link to in the first post. Ah, right. That one will work.

Does the RAP-10 require -5V? I am prettty sure I’ve used mine without.

MX300 has a waveblaster port. Don’t know if that applies to other Vortex cards?

The last game I was playing before I lost the mainboard of my Voodoo 3 System was Deus Ex. The atmosphere of the game is still awesome and I want to replay the game as soon as my system is back from a repair or until I find new mainboard. The only fun thing is that Deus Ex did not run that well on …

I found this many years ago in the Duke Nukem 3D - Kill-A-Ton Collection and I still find it amusing. I don't remember which disc. It is an obscure version of the Going After the Fat Commander MIDI track which I never found anywhere else. I did a recording with my Roland Sound Canvas SC-55. For …

I don't think SBLive/Audigy drivers allow for using external MIDI devices in pure DOS. They will always redirect to the internal synth. Granted, I haven't tried that with a LiveDrive, but it didn't work when using a standard gameport to MIDI adapter. Yes, this is correct. You won't be able to use …

Hey, lolo. I don't have the answer, unfortunately. What are the indications that the intelligent mode is supported? Since it's released a few years after Roland RAP-10, which only provides UART, I would guess it does not. I've read somewhere that Princess Maker 2 uses it, but it didn't run with all …

-Roland SCP-55 SoundCanvas and MPU-401 GM device in DOS + digital audio in Win3.x/Win9x I find it very interesting that the SCP-55 is capable of digital audio in addition to wavetable MIDI. How does the sound compare to RAP-10? In fact, with the MCB-3, you got PCM, MPU-401 and Sound Canvas in one. …

If you listen to the shadow warrior soundtrack from the CD, and compare it to the shareware version, which is using MIDI, you might get an idea what it’s supposed to sound like.

I run a computer with GS at 332, LA synths at 330, and UART at 300, but I still have to use a mixer for mixing the cards with internal and external sound, like MT-32 which is connected to an LAPC-I.

Not that I can see. You check the video I have attached. I thought the game would pre-load sysex before it starts to play music. I think the system is just too fast for the HardMPU or the the card as an issue. I tried in another 486 DX2/66 and it's even worst. I think tha t I'll just go with the …
