    Hello there. Could you add MT-32 emulation in Magic Dosbox? Since Dosbox Turbo has MT-32 emulation, I think it could be supported in Magic Dosbox too.

    Hi,

    yes, there is progress on MIDI currently, but MIDI is partially supported in already released version 31. In midi config you must define this section :

    [midi]
    mpu401=intelligent
    mididevice=default
    mt32.thread=off

    The path to ROMs is hardcoded now for development
    /storage/emulated/0/MagicBox/MT32ROM/

    If your device does not support this path then it will not work. If yes, then place ROMs into MT32ROM folder

    Today I finished mt32 library implementation with thread support. The version 32 will be released in next 7-10 days and will not have yet this modification. It will be probably in version 33, but without GUI. GUI will be added in version 34

    This is plan if everything will go fine:)

    EDIT : Or maybe I’ll synchronize latest midi to next version and will be available only in expert settings. Will see…

    Best regards,
    Tony

    Well, I added midi update to version upcoming 32. GUI will be not available yet, but you can define midi options in expert setting

    this will be necessary to add:
    [midi]
    mpu401=intelligent
    mididevice=default
    mt32.thread=on
    mt32.romdir=/storage/emulated/0/ROMDIR
    mt32.analog=2

    mpu401 set to none or intelligent
    mididevice set to default or mt32
    mt32.romdir is directory in which are stored midi ROMfiles
    #analog means quality, 0=fastest,2=good middle
