Thanks, I need to check that (in case I still want to try to hook up my CM-32L with the USB MIDI adapter... maybe not, Munt rocks). Market this as yet another MT-32/General MIDI related favorite topic.

Does it include instructions on how to set up Munt in Win7/8? I was meant to write down once again some kind of granny instructions how to install Munt/BASSMIDI/better General MIDI soundfonts in Win7/8, just so that all those old DOS (GOG) games would sound as good as possible.

(there are some earlier threads in GOG forum about the subject, but they are quite hard to follow, the info is still kinda scattered around IMO)

While I do talk about MUNT, I'm not showing how to set it up. Mostly because of copyright issues with the ROM files. BASSMIDI / General MIDI sound fonts might be an interesting topic though.

Also make sure you check out my DOSBox Gog.com tweaking playlist on my channel. Covers heaps of good topics.

Great review - thx. I'll have to split watching it into some evenings but thumbs up for this...

I haven't watched it, but I just want to throw in that Mac users can use Boxer which has Roland MT-32 emulation built into it for DOS games instead of DOSBox. if you own a physical MT-32 you can even hook it up and use the real thing in Boxer!
