(like with awesfx for SB AWE) I think some of the related code was never brought over from the ultra sound project driver. MIDI emulation is at least missing. There was/is some support for loading at least simple instruments (eg. mod samples). I was trying to get mikmod to work with ALSA sequencer + GUS PNP at some point. I managed to get decent playback but I never got the timing related stuff working correctly. That was many years ago though. At the moment all of my GUS cards are gathering dust on the shelf but if you're going to hack around with this stuff I can at least volunteer as a tester. My mikmod patch is still @ http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/alsa/ -- Ville Syrjälä syrjala@xxxxxx http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
