I am happy to report that the two programs (MidiSoft Recording Studio & Powerchords) are very nice. I _really_ like Midisoft recording studio... it is exactly what I have always wanted for my Ultrasound (aside from OS/2 support, but that's being work on :-/ ). However (skipped lines for effect), there is a GLARING bug in it which makes it all but unusable for us Ultrasound owners. During playback of a file, occassionally certain tracks will just cut out - their little meter still bounces up and down, but there is no music coming from that channel. I found a way to make the music come back - by hitting mute and then unhitting mute... this makes that track play out loud again until the next time the thing decides to cut out. For those of you with the software, try this: Load 5thsymp.mid (needs one meg) into Recording Studio and play it. On mine, a little ways into the song, the cello cuts out. On indian.mid, which I picked up a while back when the GUS was young, the piano parts never even play...I have to mute and unmute them to get any sound out of them. This is _irritating_. Please, Gravis, fix this. Incidentally, I don't thing it is just my setup... I have a meg on my GUS, 20mb ram in my 486/50, nothing else gives me troube with the GUS under Windows (Powerchords, MCS Stereo, Winjammer, Midi Player all work fine with no note loss). Last problem with Recording Studio: After editing indian.mid (I changed some instruments, nothing else), I wanted to save it and play the file in Midi Player to hear my changes (a workaround for the bug related above). No such luck. Recording Studio cried after a few seconds of disk activity that one of the tracks had exceeded 64k and could not be saved any more. What the %$#$@^% is this? Some sort of a limit on the program? And how in the world had a track exceeded 64k on a 41k midi file? Thanks for any help anyone can offer (especially Gravis - with bugfixes. :-( -- -----------------------------------___------------------------------------- | Al Dhir, Technical Consultant /___\ UMCP CSC Consulting Lab | | Internet: adhir@is-next.umd.edu (o o) (301) 405-1500 (301) 405-3014 | -------------------------------ooO-(_)-Ooo--------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: 14 Jun 93 23:43:53 GMT From: oscar@helium.gas.uug.arizona.edu (Oscar M Fowler) Subject: [GUS] Tidbits from Computer Entertainment News Message-ID: <1993Jun14.234353.2709@organpipe.uug.arizona.edu> ReprintFrom: comp.sys.ibm.pc.soundcard If you take a look at the bottom of page 12 in Computer Entertainment News (some new mag that ended-up on our doorstep...), there's a bit on Gravis. According to the mag, Gravis has begun shipping UltraPaks, which include a GUS, a game (AirCombat, Test Drive III, Winter Challenge), and either a GamePad or an Analog Pro. It also says Gravis "is about to introduce a 3-D space game, and later this year it will be bundling the UltraSound board in a multimedia upgrade kit." Just thought you GUS-types would like to know...

The piece was quite brief, so I'll quote the entire article: " Advanced Gravis, $3.10, up 15 cents Sagit Investment Management has purchased through a private agreement one million common shares of Advanced Gravis Computer on behalf of several funds it manages. Together with 1.5 million Advanced Gravis shares acquired from Logitech, those funds now hold 2.5 million Advanced Gravis shares or about 18 per cent." It looks as though the biggest stakes in Gravis are now held by Logitech, Sagit, and management. Logitech seems to be reducing its holdings, while others are increasing theirs (actually Logitech exercised some warrants recently, and those shares were probably the ones sold to Sagit, so one could argue that Logitech's holdings are unchanged -- they still hold about 45 per cent of the shares). Of course, one could also argue that the biggest stakeholders in Gravis are the GUS owners .... +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | George Kirikos Internet: gkirikos@epas.utoronto.ca | | Toronto, Canada Telephone: (416) 537-1756 | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Jun 1993 02:43:51 GMT From: gmontem@eis.calstate.edu (George A. Montemayor) Subject: A SBOS question Message-ID: ReprintFrom: comp.sys.ibm.pc.soundcard -- Why can't Gravis create an SBOS program to emulate Sound Blaster Pro? What's so hard about doing that? Won't it be like SBOS except that it must keep track where to play which instrument? It would be nice if Gravis Ultrasound can also emulate the Sound Blaster Pro. I don't mind whether GUS can or cannot emulate SB-Pro. I was just wondering.

I see various programs referred to as "composers" and "sequencers". I have no MIDI equipment right now (grad school doesn't pay very well these days) so that rules out what I would call a "sequencer" program for me. Do any of the programs on the EPAS allow a user to load in MIDI patches and compose musical pieces note-by-note and voice-by-voice? I'm not expecting any full-blown SVGA graphics, just a nice solid program that works. Who can recommend a good one to try? I don't feel like downloading several megs on a trial and error basis. thanks Stephen Ferguson Clinical Mechanics Group Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 93 23:22:42 CDT From: Michael J Stumpf Subject: ecoquest 2 Message-ID: <9306150422.AA25684@tamsun.tamu.edu> Just got around to installing windoze drivers. I get no midi sound on a 1024k ultrasound, playing sierra's ecoquest 2. I have tried base & extended level midi, with all sorts of settings on the midi maps.. All I get is digital audio, no midi. Probably been asked/solved before, but I'd appreciate it if you would repost it. ------------------------------ Date: 14 Jun 1993 20:56:46 -0500 (EST) From: STU_JABIRCHE@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU Subject: Flashback Message-ID: <01GZDRIFT3O28Y6WZU@VAX1.ACS.JMU.EDU> Just to let you know, Flashback sounds horrible with SBOS. :) It's not out in the U.S. yet, so Gravis/Forte can look at that if they wanna before it's released. The game is AWESOME, though, with or without sound. If you've played any other Delphine Games, you know what I mean. The version I have is all in French, so I have no idea whether it's SBOS or my memory config. I muddled through enough of the French docs to see that at certain levels of memory availability, things will automagically be shut off (music/sfx). The music sounded like a bunch of Bagpipes being sat upon continuously thru the GUS, but all the sounds were pretty cool from the SB. I'd rather have GUS, tho. :) Happy Happy Gus Gus -=Marc=- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 93 10:35 EDT From: Scott Bringen Subject: GUS for Sale Message-ID: <9306141435.AA15162@orca.es.com> Hi everyone, Some of you might remember that I tried to do this about 6 months ago. Well, I've decided to sell my PC again. I'm beginning to show signs of Carpal(sp) tunnel syndrome and so I want to get the PC out of my house. I guess the 8 hours a day at work, plus 2-4 hours at home was too much :(. My sister has agreed to buy the PC, but she has *NO* use for the GUS. Rather than letting it go to waste, I thought someone might want to buy it 8). The upgrade disks came in the mail Saturday. I will let the GUS/upgrade disks go for $90, buyer pays postage. I live in College Park, Maryland, USA, so consider that went calculating shipping charges. I can be reached at ZMSKB@GIBBS.GSFC.NASA.GOV.

Firstly, I had the same problem that other people had in terms of the install program repeatedly asking for disk2. My problem (probably) stemmed from the fact that I run Norton's cache program, and my solution was to wait about 70 seconds between disks to give my cache time to flush. It worked like a champ. The second funnyness that happened was that after doing the Windows install, instead of rebooting as it claimed, it brought up the same A complete install requires 72976384 bytes of hard disk space and I thought that 72 megabytes was excessive. And I made a mistake -- I clicked on Install All UltraSound Software. That was a mistake. There's no way out except to reboot after that point. There's no way during the path entry to cancel the install. Anyway, time may be the solution to some of you who are having trouble getting disk #2 recognized.

I suppose this is probably true in Canada as well. This is why the arrivals are so sporadic. There is no "guaranteed" delivery time with Bulk Rate (not that there is much of one with First Class). I think Bulk Rate is a perfectly reasonably way to save Gravis some fairly big bucks. Most of their customers won't care. But my point is that I think it is kind of silly to say that Gravis is discriminating against domestic owners. I doubt that Gravis failed to mail domestic packages. That's just the way the postal system happened to work.

Has anyone else noticed this? I wonder if it is a patch loading problem, but is is hard to tell as PatchMan will not run at the same time as Recording Session. I notice that Recording Session does not list Program Change events at the start of a track (instead just marking the track as using that particular patch), so does it load patches for Program Change events ocurring later in a multi-patch track? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 06:23:09 -0400 From: mchen@sol4.cs.psu.edu (Michael Chen) Subject: MM V hates SBOS 2.0B9 Message-ID: <9306141023.AA15507@sol4.cs.psu.edu> I downloaded SBOS 2.0B9 the other day, and Might and Magic V (Dark Side of Xeen) started crashing at random intervals. Anyone had similar problems? -- Mike P.S SBOS 2.08 seems to work just fine. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 17:58:57 -0700 (PDT) From: Bob Tinsman Subject: more motherboard notes Message-ID: <9306141758.aa27706@srv100a.sco.com> Just some more information on motherboards... When I got my GUS, I plugged it into my 486-33 motherboard of fairly old issue--Zymos chip set and AMI bios with a date of about 1990, which is pretty old as far as 486's go. It was extremely flakey. At first, mididemo would hang after a song or two, and SBOS would hang immediately. I got it to work better by pulling out an ancient tape controller, but SBOS still didn't work. This was such a bad hang that the reset switch would not pull it out...I had to turn off the machine! This was kind of weird because I had not had any problems with this motherboard, even running SCO Unix, which is a pretty good test of a motherboard. After cursing at the GUS for awhile, seeing a lot of the problems with motherboards on this list, and getting the GUS to work fine on a 386/25, I went out and paid a whopping $120 for a new VLB motherboard based on the Contaq chipset (no, I had not heard of it either), again with the ubiquitous AMI bios, as well as a Genoa 8500-VL video card. Now it works like a champ! I don't know the name of the motherboard manufacturer--I basically went to a flea market in San Jose, CA and got the cheapest thing I could find. So it seems that in the space of 3 years or so, it's not rocket science anymore to get a 486 motherboard right. Now the Pentium, that'll be another thing... ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 10:59:47 +0000 From: Clarke Brunt Subject: nasty Harpsichord patch Message-ID: <0096E02B.7BC7DD4B.9990@lsl.co.uk> Now we've all (well some of us) got our new disks, and are very happy with them, the time has come to nit pick about finer details. Does anyone else think that the Harpsichord patch is horrible? The sound is accompanied by a metallic buzzing or something. I think that it was better in the very early releases. Can someone come up with a better one, more suitable for use as a solo instrument? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 11:16:18 +0000 From: Clarke Brunt Subject: patches don't work in GUSORGAN Message-ID: <0096E02D.CAABDEAB.9996@lsl.co.uk> I am trying GUSORGAN, downloaded from epas. Using the default configuration file, I cannot select two of the patches. I haven't got my information to hand, but the ones that fail are either 11 and 12, or 12 and 13. The patch files selected for these numbers certainly exist, but when I try to turn them on (using SHIFT/1, SHIFT/2 etc.) the marker does not appear next to the patch, and no sound is made. Is it possible that these particular key sequences are not being passed to the program, or is it something about the patch files? Obviously, I could experiment further by changing the configuration file, but I wonder if anyone else has had the same problem? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 11:38:48 +0300 From: Lauri-Juhani Jussi S{{ski Subject: Pocket Recorder works in _mono_ only! Message-ID: Dear fellow GUSsers I am having trouble using the Pocket Recorder ver 2.1 for Windows. Has any of you managed to make samples in 44.1 kHz _stereo_ mode? For me it works only in mono! My GUS driver for Windows is the one that came in with the version 2.5 disks. Pocket Recorder is a nice piece of shareware, the only one (to my knowledge) that samples directly onto the hard disk. That way the size of samples are virtually unlimited! Jussi Saaski Finland ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Jun 1993 08:17:48 +0501 (EDT) From: Gunnar Swanson Subject: POP2 PP2 huh ? Message-ID: Allot of people have been writing in and talking about POP2 and PP2 but it is not clear what those two contractions mean. Now POP2 could be Prince of Persisa 2 or Populous II although it is pretty clear that PP2 means Prince of Persia 2. In order to clear this this confusion up might I suggest using POP2 for Prince of Persia 2 and PopII for Populous II. We can probably drop PP2 altogether. Hopefully doing this will make it clear which game is being discussed even if the fix for the problem is not clear.

Why? Cost for one. I agree although I think the choice should be there. I dislike daughtercards (they take an extra slot for one) and I think they end up costing more. But my main gripe is that they aren't released yet! But Gravis is obviously working on this UltraSound Pro (or whatever) so what's going on? What ELSE will the Pro have that I can't get for my card and, more importantly, how much will it cost? Will it be cheaper than the GUS+daughtercards? > But I'll chime in and say everyone will eventually need 1 meg RAM! ;-) Yup. The video card manufacturers figured this out a while ago...

I had version 2.08 installed but then upgraded to 2.09b. I can choose adlib sound and it works ok. If I try to configure it for sound blaster, the game starts up with a blank screen and locks up my computer. I also tried settings for general midi. I tried two IRQ's (5 and 7) but that made no difference. My current configuration is as follows.... 33mhz 486 Eisa Do 6.0 (no double space) Himem and emm386 are both loaded Dos is loaded high set ultrasnd=220,6,6,11,7 set blaster=a220 I7 D1 T1 I tried using the -o2 switch but since I've never had to use any switches before (all of my other games run without any switches), I may not have done it correctly.
