Get ultra05e.zip from hobbes.nmsu.edu.  This is the first version to
fix the external line-in disabling problem.  You might also try getting
GUSmixer from the same site.

	Does anyone know how to get WING Armada to run with native GUS
support, I think that it uses Miles-Davis Drivers but they are embedded in
a component file. (.TRE), The game will run with SBOS but not if SB IRQ is
7, and in addition it reboots the computer on exit.  Besides this MEGA-EM
refuses to run on my computer because of EMM incompatibility.  I use QEMM
7.04, STAC 4.0, and DOS 6.0.  Any ideas?

Subject: GUS & MIDI PROBLEM under windows: problem and solution

A friend of mine recently asked me to help him install his new
GUS MAX. He has a noname PC 386-20 (C&T chipset) with 8 MB memory and a
german windows 3.1 and DOS 6.2 with doublespace.

Problem:
Under DOS everything worked fine. Under windows, he couldn't play 
midi files with mediaplayer, power-chords didnt work, an so on.
When starting canion.mid with mediaplayer, it started playing,
but about 10 times to slow, ie. every tone sounded much longer than it
should. After some time i recognized, that also the windows clock
run 10 times too slow, as soon we started playing the midi file. When
we stopped playing it, the clock ran with the normal speed.

So i concluded it has to do something with the timer interrupt.

After a many tests with different settings of interrupts, dma-channels,
cmos-settings and so on , i finally found the solution:

In the file system.ini in the windows directory you can set the 
parameter

TrapTimerPorts=False

(default is True) and everything works fine. You can find a description
of this parameter in the file system.wri in the same directory.
This file also recommends to set

SyncTime=True

which i have also done.

Iwonder, why nobody else has this same problem, and what could be the
consequences of my settings concerning the behaviour of other programs.

Perhaps this information is also of some value for someone else.

Subject: GUS - Mitsumi CD-ROM - Video for Windows

I already wrote something on this in a previous digest, but
there where two questions again related to this.

To get Video for Windows set up. Run it (if it is a
self-extracting file it will pull out the files plus a setup.exe
file. From the Program Manager use RUN to run this setup
program. Presto... If you look in the setup drivers of the control
panel you'll find some more. You can use it with the mediaplayer
(for .AVI movies I mean).

I also have a Mitsumi CD-ROM and no problems. Make a list of the
DMA, IRQ, IO-address settings and check for different settings. 
For the I/O address the following note: address 388 is always 
used (ADLIB soundcard compatability). Also, the GUS uses some 
I/O addresses at baseaddress+100H I believe. So, baseaddress 
GUS 220H has extra I/O on 320H (note!). So don't put the Mitsumi 
CD-ROM on 320H.

Now about choppy AVI files. Yes, as I noticed too, it has something
to do with the Windows drivers of the GUS. Make the playback
buffer size not bigger than 1K (1024 bytes). I used 512 bytes
but discovered that for higher quality wave files this is just a
little bit to small, you get plops and clicks sometimes. I guess
768 bytes is just a good choice. Try it. Also make sure that in
the media player the `skip frames if behind' option is checked.
I haven't tried it but it could make the sound choppy (just a
guess). The record buffer size can be bigger, because it is not
used for playing .AVI files.

Good luck,

The following games listed are games that use the HMI drivers without GUS
support (they cut the game before HMI updated their drivers):

Theme Park
Dark Legions
FPS Baseball
Aces of the Deep

A Dark Legions patch has been released by SSI. I would suggest you email
Dynamix and ask them if a patch will be released that  includes updated sound
drivers.

All other HMI games there should be no problems including Wing 3, Under a
Killing Moon and Quarantine to name a few.

Vince,

> Skokie?

Sorry for the delay in responding...as usual, I'm way behind on my
Digest reading! <G>  Actually the BBS is in the western Chicago suburb
of Naperville.  The BBS is free and specializes in GUS and related
files (MODs, MIDIs, Music Demos, Players, GUS compatible games, etc.).
The other half of the BBS focuses on computer golf.  Weird combination,
huh? <VBG>  I also carry the GUS Digest and InterNet Newsgroups,
including all the soundcard ones of course.  The BBS is just about a
year old.  I started it because, at the time, I didn't have a very
efficient means of accessing FTP sites (do now) and didn't see a board
in this geographic area with comprehensive coverage of the GUS (or
computer golf).  I figured if I was frustrated about this others might
be too...thus the birth of a BBS! <G>  I'm currently running Wildcat 4.0
on a 486DX/33 with about 98 MEGS of GUS related files and am expecting
another 22 MEGS in the near future. I also have older GUS files offline
and they are available upon request...gotta watch that hard drive space!
<G>

BTW, Thank you for automatically sending the FAQ to new subscribers (I
changed addresses for the BBS copy so was a "new" subscriber).  I've got
one of the very first pre-release ordered GUSs and have been reading the
Digest from day one.  Read the FAQ ages ago and missed a paragraph in it
that would have saved me a lot of grief.  It refers to some games that
will sense the GUS's Adlib capabilities even if SBOS isn't loaded.  I
have such a game, Jack Nicklaus Signature Edition Golf.  This game
really started acting up on me...looked like some kind of conflict.  I
wasn't running it with SBOS or MEGAEM because it had always acted weird
with them.  Well, a couple of versions of SBOS ago I decided to try it
again with the game.  Locked up on the SB setting...but low and behold
the darn thing worked on the Adlib setting...and game ran smoothly
again!  What happens if I turn the music off?  It acts up again.
Conclusion..it knows the GUS is there!  Sure glad I reread the
FAQ..solved a mystery! <G>

First, try setting the DMA playback buffer size (in Control Panel for 
Ultrasound Wave and Midi Synth) to 512 or 1024.  I never had any trouble 
in Myst or GK (on a 486DX-33 with 8MB of RAM) but several other 
animations (MS Encarta, et al) had bad problems.  Lowering the buffer 
size solved it.  Remember that every time you run the Ultrasound setup and 
redo the windows software it sets the buffer back to 4096 again.

I run Myst and Gabriel Knight without trouble.  I have a Mitsumi FX001
(doublespeed) on its own controller and a GUS MAX.  I use the Mitsumi's
own controller just because I bought separate patch cords to hook it into
my stereo so I can play games on headphones while my girlfriend listens to
a CD; and because I can use the DMA&IRQ driver for the CDROM.  I can give
you my exact IRQ, port and DMA settings if you like.

I have the same configuration.  You didn't specify what speed your drive 
was, but I'll assume it's a double speed one for now (if it's only a 
single, your problem might lay right there).  The CD-Rom games (not 
including Gariel Knight or Myst) I have work just fine as do demos with 
magazines and stand-alones.  What you might want to try is increasing 
the amount of buffers on your CD-ROM drivers in the config.sys and 
autoexec.bat if you can afford the extra memory (it's exteneded so you 
should be able to).  I have them both set to 30 buffers which seems to 
work fine.  If you still have a problem, you might want to investigate 
cache programs that cache CD-ROM's as well as HD's and FD's.  Also, you 
didn't happene to mention it, but what version CD-ROM and GUS drivers do 
you use (have you used?).  Hope this helps.

Speaking of SBOS versions (someone mentioned problems with it before), I 
had an old version of SBOS that came with GUS software 3.11 or something 
like that.  I then updated to GUS software v3.53 which included a new 
SBOS.  However, when I tried playing NHL Hockey, the voices and sound 
effects can only be described by saying they sounded like someone slowed 
down "the tape" to about 1/3 speed.  None were missing, just all were WAY 
too slow.  I consequently went back to the old version of SBOS and all 
works fine.  Am I the only one with this problem and if not, does it 
affect other games?

Subject: sound fault

I have  rencently installed an ADVANCED GRAVIS ULTRASOUND card 
in my IBM 486 DX 66 (PS/ValuePoint) home computer. 
The system software is the IBM DOS 6.1 and the version number 
of the ULTRASOUND's software is 3.53.

I have several problems when using the sound board. I would
like to have advices in order to be able to determine if problems are 
linked to the card or to the sofwares used.

In the GUSMOD program some notes of the melodies seem to be lost when
using the sound card if compared with the same melodies heard directly
through the internal speaker of the PC or through an DAC on LPT1.
The problem occurs with all MOD files we could get (about 20).

In DOOM 1.2 the sound of the gun (and other weapons) is not always
heard. The same problem happens when the index pointer (the skull) of 
the menu is moved. This type of problem is not noticed with the 
1.1 version of DOOM.

Analog sound problems (no sound) are found in the menu selection of
PINBALL ANDROID that comes with the BONUS disks.

In addition, I would like to know if there is a technical support address
in France or Europe, and where I could find the instruction guide to
program the sound card through ASSEMBLER.

	I have bought Gravis UltraSound sound card (MAX version) for

multimedia and profesional use.


	I have some technical questions and problems :


1.	I wonder whether you supply some information about ways of
	programming GUS sound card. I must to write some programs in
	C++ or Pascal with GUS support.

2.	How can I use D/A output and A/D input?

3.	I vave connected to "archive.epas.utoronto.ca" by Internet.
	I have got from him some ZIP-Archives. I have a problem with
	decompress a Zip-Files. I need probably a PKUNZIP v.3.0 or
	latter. How can I decompress a Zip-Files, and where I can
	find a new PKUNZIP versions.


I am very sorry for all the trouble this has caused you.
I sincerely hope you will be able to help me in this matter.

I would appreciate an early reply.

		Yours faithfully.

The GUS uses ports 338 and 339 (Adlib, as you said), and if set to 220H, it
uses 220H-22fH, and also 320H-32fH, i.e. it uses a range of 10H ports at the
base port setting, and 10H ports at base port+100H.  If you have your GUS
set to 230H, it will conflict with an Adaptec or other SCSI at 330H, even
before you load MegaEm, and even if you move the SCSI to 334H, so be
careful.

If HMI is so much better than AIL, why do we still have to wait for patches

Subject: Re: GUS MIDI controllers and bankswitching

Albert Pauw asked in a previous digest:

What I have found is that the current windows drivers DO support
bankswitching, but do not support incremental patch loading,
thus only one bank may be specified (with fallback to bank 0 for
patches not in the specified bank).  Thus, for example, a sequencer
could call midiOutCachePatches with a bank of 128 (127?) to get a MT-32
mapping if someone wrote the correct mapping into ultrasnd.ini.

The problem is that a sequencer needs to know what bank to request.
If, for example, I ask for bank 128 on channel 1, but don't specify
a bank for channel 2 (or specify a different bank number), what should
the sequencer assume?  Even within a single channel, what should the
sequencer assume if the bank is changed in the middle of a piece?

Proposal:
1) The "correct" solution would be for Gravis/Forte to implement incremental
   patch loading (i.e. not to treat a MIDI_CACHE_BESTFIT as a clear and
   reload, but rather as an append), so that patches from multiple banks
   could be loaded.
2) An expedient would be for sequencers to assume that the first non-zero bank
   encountered for melodics (and separately for drum channel 10) becomes the
   "controlling" bank, and is used for the midiOutCachePatches call.
3) Sequencer authors incorporate the bank arguments.  On an interim basis
   (until proposal 1 is done, and I have no idea if Gravis even plans to do #1 -
   any comment from Gravis) the bank arguments could be set either by
   using the expedient suggested in proposal 2, a sequencer setup screen
   allowing input of bank arguments, or a sequencer specific string or sysex.
   Any opinions here?  Any sequencer authors willing to implement something
   like this?

MegaEm used to work fine for me on my i386DX33 with QEMM 7.04 
but when i got my i486DX66 with the VERY SAME software

What i do is use multiple config and use EMM386 when i know

This may help others.   I got my rhythm editor back.  I still don't
know exactly what happened but it seems like Power Chords had
saved my session with the rhythm editor window off screen so when
I used the "windows" menu to put this window on top it still did
not show up.   What I did that seems to have fix this was to close
Power Chords and open Power Chords demo.   I did a single click on
the rhythm editor icon to get the icon menu and then "maximized"
the window.   This brought the window on screen.   Then I exited
Power Chords demo and started Power Chords again.  The rhythm editor
window was then on screen and usable.  

Does Power Chords store configuration info about a session in the
executable or in a file somewhere?

I can add 'Sustain' to the list of ones that it does already posted.

Like we keep saying, this is not possible unless you know exactly what
patches are being used. You don't finish using a voice just because
there is a 'note off' event - the note still continues to decay
according to the definition of the particular patch.

>Does anyone know how many channels Playmidi sets before playing MIDs? Or does
>it scan the MID first to find out how many channels are needed?

Can't remember, it's some middling sort of number, and NO it doesn't.
Old versions (is it in new ones?) had a debug mode (-debug?) which
produced a graphical display of which voices were playing, so you
could tell from that. There is a command line switch to set the
number of voices - is it -x (guess).

>So far, my WIndows UltraSound drivers are set to initialize the card to 
>play a maximum of 32 voices.  I recalled that I read somewhere that the

>of WAV files, etc.  So, is it better if I just set the drivers to

I don't know if it REALLY sets 32 when you tell it to, or truncates it
to 30. Presumably if you played a WAV while a MID was playing (e.g.
a system 'ding' or whatever) then there would be a nasty interaction
if both used the same voice.
Note that the sound quality deterioriates if you set high numbers
of voices (above 14) as the sampling rate decreases. This may not
be noticeable, but it makes a lot of difference to the sound of
some patches - so don't set a high number unless you know that
you need that many simultaneous notes.

>What must i do to install 'Video for Windows'(vfw11d.exe)
>properly ? I get choppy frames and the sound just stopps after

and
>playback of .AVI files suffers from painfully choppy video.

One thing that I know can affect it is the DMA buffer size, which you
can set in the Driver setup box for the GUS driver (accessed via
control panel) (old drivers didn't have the option). The docs say
that 4096 is the max, but it also accepts 8192. For video, you
seem to have to set a SMALLER number to get smooth playback e.g.
try 4096, or 2048, or 1024. I can only assume that DMAing a large
amount hogs the machine for too long and interferes with the video.

Finally a question of my own. At some point I acquired a new better
Media Player than the one with Windows 3.1. It has more controls,
and can play e.g. embedded AVI files while still in the host
document (is this OLE2?). This is used to good effect in the
MS Dangerous Creatures CD. Does anyone know if this Media Player
came with this CD, or if not, where did it come from?

too bad you trusted Canada Post, i've so far lost 7 letters that
supposed to arrive at my mail box, instead it goes to others.  Luckily
i've received all letters from Gravis.  So check with them if they

Subject: CD ROM Audio Cables

OK, it's come that time.  I recently bought a Toshiba 3401 CD-ROM and
want to attach it to my rev 2.4 GUS.  On going to the store to try to
find one that would work, I found out that they don't stock a
3401-to-GUS cable.  They do stock a 3401-to-SB, 3401-to-SB16,
3401-to-PAS, etc.  So, question is, will one of these work?  Is the
header layout on a SB or PAS similiar to a GUS.  And if not, a quick
question to Gravis: why not?  I mean, why bother coming up with a new
CD-ROM audio pinout.  Don't get me wrong, I'm all in favor of the
GUS's innovations when they make sense, but I'm not sure this is one
of those times that it pays to get tricky.

And if not, can someone give me the name and number of someone who
makes or stocks a 3401-to-GUS cable?  Thanks.

As far as the AMD/Gravis connection that's been rumored about...
you'll just have to wait and see.  As Sargent Shultz used to say, "I
know nothing! I know nothing!". Yea, right. :-)

I have a hard time believeing this.  My GUS chirps when starting X Window
system under Linux, and also with Solaris x86 on my workstation at work -
Solaris doesn't *have* a working GUS driver!

(Windows makes it chirp, too, but not DESQview/X).

I think the GUS is simply picking up radio signals generated by the video
card.

Since you can set environment variables in config.sys with DOS >6, you might
try loading ultrinit.exe as a device driver.  It could work, worth a try

The modulation controller is the only other one that comes to mind

No bankswitching controllers are recognized by the driver.  Bank
Man switches drivers by talking to the driver directly instead of
using MIDI controllers.

Did the files play back with just a piano through PlayMIDI?  If so, then
you're extracted the note information but not the channel configuration
information (such as instruments, main channel volume, etc.).  Anyway,
complete MIDI files from X-Wing can already be found on Epas.  These
play fine in Windows as well as DOS.

As I've said earlier, you can't predict the number of voices a MIDI
file will require simply by scanning the event list.  The number of
voices used depends on the patches being used (specifically, their
decay times, which cannot be determined from the MIDI file).  Another
complication is that once you change the number of voices, the decay
times for patches change.

PlayMIDI defaults to 20 voices, but you can manually set the number of
voices by using the -x<nn> switch, where <nn> is a number from 14 to 32.

Im only new to linux myself but i tracked down a copy of adagio05 on one

to work well. As far as mod players go i also found tracker043 on the

Hi everyone,

A friend of mine (hi Marc) has a Soundblaster and a Ultrasound v3.7 in the 
same machine, he also has a CD-ROM. The CD-ROM audio out is connected to 
the CD-In 1 on his GUS. He made a plug on his Soundblaster ouput that fits
on the CD-In 2 on his GUS. But when he connects the plug, he does get the
Soundblaster sound through the Cd input, but no CD audio. When he disconnects
the plug, the CD audio is back again. So one of them works, but not both at the
same time. I know it's not very proper to connect to two line-level outputs 
to one
line-level input, but I've also done it with two tape recorders (no money for
a mixing unit...) and it worked perfect...
Anybody with a solution?

Subject: UltraSound Experience CD

I ran across a copy of PC-Zone, and got the UltraSound experience CD-ROM. 
All I can say is, "Wow!". I want my UltraSound back!!!! Waaaaaaaaa!!!!!
Apart from having to pay 20 bucks for the magazine (so much for the "Only 
3 pounds 95" on the cover...more like 10 pounds by the time it gets 
here), I was suitably impressed.


I gave my original GUS to my brother a few months ago, due to lack of
support in software, and the fact that it hated my PAS16/CD-ROm
combination. My old GUS was one of the ones that came with the 1.21 
disks, so that means I have had the card for 2 years at least.

Anyways, what I now want to do is dump the PAS16 and the NEC CD-ROM, and 
get an UltraSound Max and CD-ROM. Here is my question:

Of the CD-ROMs supported by the Max out of the Box, which is the best 
choice, given that I use DOS, OS/2 and Linux (on my 486DX-50). ie: What 
CD-ROM should I buy? (Double-speed...can;t afford more than that right 
now). I am mainly concerned about drivers to give me CD-ROM access from 
whatever OS I happen to be using at the time. CD-ROM support in Linux is 
not vital, but would be preferable.

Any help is greatly appeciated. I am going to price the GUS Max tomorrow, 
along with various CD-ROM drives. Hopefully I can get a wad of cash from 
selling my rather expensive SCSI-2 NEC-74-1 CD-ROM, at least $500-600 I 
hope, considering I paid $1000 for it not much more than 6 months ago.

Well, here's hoping I can be a happy GUS user again very soon :-)

I agree with Remco Lam's posting yesterday about ULTRINIT.SYS.  I use it

so that the GUS is initialized as soon as possible after a lockup.  All too
often I must reboot with the GUS stuck on some note.  I think that Gravis
should provide both versions, or if possible, release one version that works
in both config.sys and autoexec.bat. :-)

DOS 6.0 and up command "LOAD" (load?  I'm almost sure I'm wrong!).  The
reference for it is in help config.sys.  Basically it runs TSRs before COMMAND
is loaded (they don't have a copy of the environment but they can't load high)
and I think ultrinit works with it.  Best thing is to try!

To those concerned about Ultrinit.sys, YOU DON'T NEED IT!!! If you want to 
reset your GUS, just run ultrinit.exe, from the DOS prompt.It really makes one
wonder how you people get yout computer up and running.
