Good music with Roland Virtual sound Canvas

Post by Pictus »

I am VERY impressed with Exult !!!
Ultima 7 Part 2 is the best game I ever played, the music of Ultima 7 part 1 and 2 are fantastic !!! I could never forget that in all those years…

For a better music try Roland Virtual sound Canvas http://download.edirol.com/drivers/vsc32t.exe
it sounds better than SB Live with 8 or 23Mb sound bank.

Well, I must remember where is my Silver Seed expansion… :))

For the Exult tean, I Thank you very much !!!!

It is how MSWindows associate MIDI compatible devices with software. I think you go into Control Panel and select a device to use in Sound Properties. I'm probably wrong though since I'm not too familiar with that OS any more.

For Windows 2000/XP, go to Control Panel, XP= “Sound and Audio Devices” and 2000= “Sound and Multimedia Properties”, then in “AUDIO” , “MIDI music playback” select ROLAND VSC.

GM will do but if you could not hear the difference maybe there is something else…
I use Exult 1.0
