    Maybe give us some more information first…? ?

    Seriously, it’s impossible to troubleshoot without any knowledge of what’s going on. For example, what config options are you using in Magic Dosbx? Have you configured Soundblaster in Win95 and in Starcraft setup? Is it working in other games? Etc etc, things like that.
    I can confirn Starcraft is working fine, so I’m confident we can find a solution for this issue.

    Thank you very much! ?
    I’ll copy my own SC installation to my phone to double check, will take a while to dl it from my cloud storage.

    But I’m seeing a possible reason: you said you’ve configured Windows to use Soundblaster 16, but you’ve set sbtype=sb2 in your conf settings. So I’d suggest you change that to sbtype=sb16, and oplmode=auto.

    As a general suggestion, unless you have an older phone/tablet, you should also set rate=44100 (under the [mixer] tab). This has practically no impact on performance, but wildramatically improve the quality of General MIDI and MT32 emulation.
