Haven't composed anything yet... I've really gotten rusty with playing as well as composition ideas.  It's embarrassing!

Lots of sounds I won't use... lots of sounds I will!

I might have a 3dfx Banshee card still... 
3  MUSIC & SOUND CARDS / Roland Sound Canvas/Yamaha XG / Back again - with a new Roland XP-30! on: September 02, 2012, 02:22:07 PM
After a long absence, I've returned - and with my nearly-new Roland XP-30 keyboard!  Cheesy

I can't wait to get composing again with the awesome onboard sounds.  Time to dig up those Roland sound editors out there and maybe a couple of the other expansion boards still around.  (Orchestral II would nicely compliment the Orch1 already onboard!)

I'll record some examples soon!

There's a PR-100 in the pawn shop now...  it's tempting, just to have the classic combo package.  Cheesy

The two units together are the same thing as the MT-100

That's very cool!  For similar stuff, google the "C64 Orchestra" who have been reworking several greats from those days!

Happy Birthday from a long-time lurker!   Grin

Don't have an Adlib and SB in same machine... ZERO need for that kind of duplication.
8  MUSIC & SOUND CARDS / Miscellaneous MIDI & Sound Cards / Re: It it possible to use a GUS and a Sound Blaster in the same machine? on: March 29, 2012, 03:43:57 AM
I used to have both in one machine for years... but that was a SB16 and AWE32.  There was a GUS utility that let you change all the GUS addresses, etc... can't remember much beyond that.

I'm jealous of your TL!  I had the same 1000SX you're selling when I was a kid but I'd rather get a TL (1/2/3) which was the upgrade I wanted but never got!  Cheesy

I know the SID was only 3 voices, but the sounds it was capable of producing often just SOUNDED BETTER than many Adlib songs I listened to a few years later.

Just raw appeal...

Imagine if Commodore had put a pair of them in for stereo right from the get-go!  Cheesy

I give it a thumb up for happy nostalgia.   Wink

I'm jealous - you have no idea how much I miss my beloved SC-88... I was a desperate fool to have ever sold it.  Sad

One of my favorite tunes!  Can't wait to get home and listen!

The repost was worth it just for that awesome screenshot!  Cheesy
15  MUSIC & SOUND CARDS / Roland MT-32 Sound Module / Re: Only Time Will Tell - cover on: December 30, 2011, 07:58:27 AM
Sounds great so far!

As far as cheating - how about using a PAIR of MT-32's as some have done for the KQ4 debate!  Smiley

It's FINALLY finished??  I was part of the team ~5-6 years ago when they got started but couldn't get any direction and couldn't tell me what kind of music they actually wanted! 

Just as well... I haven't written much in a long time...  Embarrassed

Must download and finally see!
17  MUSIC & SOUND CARDS / Roland MT-32 Sound Module / Re: What's the secret to getting the MT-32 working with Sound Blaster AWE64 Gold? on: December 01, 2011, 04:27:52 PM
It should work... the SB16 and up had decent (if not perfect) MPU-401 compatibility. 

Might even want to verify you have your MIDI in/out plugged in right!  You'll only need IN, so if one doesn't work, try the other.

I wish I could buy it with the Orch board!  Smiley
