If you got it to list OK, then it sounds like you must have correctly
changed ultrasnd.ini, so if it wouldn't load or play, then perhaps the
patch format is incorrect - is wav2pat an old program?
Try Gravis PatchMaker Lite instead - I think it is part of gus0038.zip
(which I haven't got myself yet), or pmak110.zip.

OK, now here's my question. Just upgraded to a GUS last week, so I haven't
been able to see if these two topics have been covered. Sorry if they have
been beaten to death! Perhaps some kind soul could email me privately to save
the rest of you pulling your hair out :-)

Problem 1
Comanche Enhanced. Because you can't use EMS, megaem is out. SBOS (I've tried
3.7 and 1.2) Work fine for a couple of minutes, then die. I get kicked back
to dos (very cleanly though) with an invalid op code or something. Anyone get
this to work with the GUS yet?

Problem 2
Mortal Kombat. Perhaps there isn't a fix, 'cause nobody seems to be too keen
to post one. I get music OK, but the digital sounds are horrible. You can't
even understand whats going on from the distortion. Any fix for this?

Thanks for any info you can give me!
P.S. Hi 4006!

There seems to be no problem with running AVI's in windows at all - if you
have 3 things

1) A decently fast machine..
2) Some kind of disk cache installed (use a 512K Smartdrive at the least).
3) Use a half decent AVI player. This is the hard one, but heres the solution.
   Microsoft released an upgrade to the media player in Windows that does
   AVIs. It's basically the runtime version of Microsoft Video. A while back
   I uploaded it to ftp.uwp.edu It's in music/pictures/Springsteen.Bruce (or
   something like that). The file is called MSVIDRT.ZIP.
   Yep. Being a huge springsteen fan, I needed it to play the Springsteen
   'Born to Run' AVI, also in the same directory, called something like
   BSAVI-1.ZIP. Good luck.

By the way, I believe the main factor is the disk cache. If I take it out, it
pauses to load the file - even without any GUS installed. If your GUS works in
windows, it will work with the media player.

P.S. Sorry if the directories are a little off, I'm doing this from memory
	 here :-)

By the way, where are all of these other AVIs everyone is trying? FTP anywhere?

Subject: Format of patches ( envelope style )

I've recently ftp'd the patch maker-lite util for windows and experimented with 
it.   But I've felt very limited to  the  envelope style of the patch.   Is this 
the fixed style that can not be changed be cuase it's hard coded into firmware??

What I want to do is:  Currently patch consists of:

i)  Attack, sustain, and decay.
	- first section of wave is played at certain volume, sustain is the looping 
of a certain section, and decay is the looping but reducing in volume.   


I'd like to know if the patches have extensions like the following format:

ii)  Attack, sustain, and decay
	 -where attack and sustain is the same as i)  but decay is a another loop or
section of the wave, probably the tail of the wave.  

So we have a three part patch, instead of a two part patch...  parts meaning the 
patch is base around three different sections of the wave file.   

Any comments???   Please post or email me...   Later

Hidy-ho Gussers,

Ever since I have installed GUS0038.ZIP I have been getting the following
error message:

Invalid (C:\ULTRASND\SBOS\sboslib.sbs) SBOS patch library

Does anybody know why I am getting this error?  

Thanks in advance,

Subject: IRQs and Computer frying?

I have 2 questions:

1.  When choosing an IRQ line, should I try to pick a line that isn't
	being used by something else?  I mean, I see people talking about
	picking IRQ line 5, 7 and what not, but as far as I know, my HD
	uses IRQ 7 and I have some other TSR (printer spooler?  dunno)
	that uses IRQ 5.  Right now, my GUS is set for IRQ 7 (for Doom of
	course) but I was just thinking, wouldn't there be a conflict?  Or
	is it possible to have multiple uses for the same IRQ, without
	conflict?

2.  This one is a little more "fuddle duddle":

My dad is becoming suspicious that the GUS is frying our computer.  He
attributes this to the fact that since I put the GUS in the computer 4
months ago, the power on the computer fizzled suddenly (which I later
found out to be a loose power switch) and now the parallel port and
the serial port "blew" as in, no longer work.  So I had the parallel
port and the serial port fixed and everything works perfectly with my
computer except windows (which is a software problem!)

ANYWAYS

I need some "hardware" info, as in power usage of the GUS, where how
much current it draws, how it affects the devices around it, magnetic
fields and such, to convince my dad that the GUS couldn't possible
have anything to do with the parallel port and the serial port
breaking, and that they just wore out from old age!

	  use at the moment)

	- Insert and delete icons work.
	- S3M loader skips empty samples because some S3M's have more than 31
	  samples.

Subject: Mpeg For Windows

Well, I downloaded MFWDEMO*.zip and it plays back MPEG fine with my
GUS/1024k and 486 with 8Meg of ram. I found that with AVI it is faster
to play back the sound in another application insted of the Media Player
playing both the sound and the Video. But then you'd have to rip the
sound from the .AVI and I dont know of a program out there that does
that. Has anybody seen or heard of A AVI sound ripper ?

Subject: Mysterious problems

I have some strange problems with my GUS. At first, it worked fine, but
now it has begun to behave in a very strange way.

First, I'd like to say that the parameters both in config.sys and
autoexec.bat is 220,1,1,11,7. Also, I have a CD-ROM device that uses
DMI channel 5.

The utilities from Gravis like Playmidi and so on works just fine. But when
I start my gustest program, the tennis-sound is replaced with a very
annoing noise. Sound like I tuned in a no-channel on my radio, if you get
the picture.

When I play Rebel Assault, the syntetic sound is just fine, but when the
samples come, I'm back to the noise.

When I play FS5, the computer becomes *S L O W* when I use the SBOS to get
some sound. If I turn this off, everything works ok.

---

I've used msd and found that my SBOS driver uses IRQ 11. A friend of mine,
who also has a gus told me that his card uses IRQ 7, with the same
parameters in config.sys and autoexec.bat as for me.

Could maybe someone help me? Why all this noise? And why does the computer
becomes SLOW when I run FS5 ?

I hope that anyone can send me a mail to inform me about the silence around 
the GUS-daily digest for the last six days. I don't receive it any more. So 
if its still in the air I'd like to know it .

Subject: Questions about SB with GUS

Hello GUSers,
	I have decided to buy a sound blaster to go along with my GUS.  I have
decided I want true downward compatiblity.  I was just wondering how
I go about making them cooperate together.  I figure if I do this
it will make my life alot easier instead of pulling my hair out
trying to get emulation from SBOS or Megaem.  I'd be very
appreciative for any help.

   So what are you trying to say?  <G>  Naw, I forgot to add a "for me" at
the end of those lines, sorry.  "I" want MegaEm's DAC instead of my SB16-ASP
(which is MPU-401 for added MegaEm flakiness).
	Which brings me to a question:  Have you updated to 3.xx on your GUS?  If
so, have you had any trouble with extremely slow patch loading?  (Playmidi
and such load patches very slow when the SB16's in, but fast when it's
out...)
	 Later.

Subject: SB + GUS + Mega-Em + X-Wing/Tie Fighter

Is anyone else using a Sound Blaster (1.0 or whatever) in conjunction with
their GUS?

I had the combination working fine before I got the latest Mega-Em. 
(Well, I don't know how many Mega-Ems ago it was working, as I haven't had
a new game since X-Wing last spring and got tired of playing the old games
again and again until I got the Tie Fighter demo last night...)

Anyway, when I try to use Mega-Em to emulate a Sound Blaster (to get
better quality) then it totally craps out in both X-Wing and the new Tie
Fighter demo. 

There's no physical conflicts between the two cards except the DMA channel
on the SB which is not set-able...

I can play both of these with digital effects with the -SBOFF option and
EMUSET -L to use the real SB in the system, but I'd really rather use the
emulation since it sounds better.

If anyone else has an SB and a GUS in the same machine, please e-mail me
and we can compare notes.  I still haven't gotten 100% of the kinks worked
out of the combination.

I haven't spent much time diddling with it, since I haven't had a new game
in so long.

(Well, Quest for Glory IV, but I STILL can't play it after two different
patches, not even on my SB.  *sigh*)

Subject: SSI demo and question

As far as the SSI demos go, they can be found on wuarchive.wustl.edu.

A question for everybody... does anyone know of either a good 4 track
 MOD composer for the GUS or a good .669 composer for the GUS? I'm used
to either the Modedit 2.0 editing style or the .MTM/.FAR editor style,
would prefer something similar in keys to that...

Subject: Syndicate Bad Patch

Has anyone found out which patch is the patch that associates with the
'moving cars' in the victory sequence?  The patch thats installed for that is
absolutely horrible, and any of 100 patches would be much better.  This is the
ONLY problem I have with syndicate, and it would be so nice to get it out of
the way.

Subject: Ultima Underworld / Megaem-Roland Emulation

I'm playing Ultima Underworld. I wanted to use Megaem for Roland Sound 
and music along with digital speech output from the SB. The music and the 
speech is fine, however, the sound effects for fighting are horrible. 
It all sounds like different instruments. Does anybody know the patch 
numbers for the combat sound FX so that I can change them to different 
patches?

This is not a GUS problem. Look at the following settings in your WIN.INI.

[MCIAVI]
SkipFrames=1
DefaultVideo=Window
AccurateSeek=1
ZoomBy2=1
DisallowSilentPlay=0
DontBufferOffscreen=0
UseAVIFile=0

I believe that SkipFrames=1 may by your problem (you might have
SkipFrames=0)

If the above settings don't solve your problem, I suggest you
call ATI Tech Support.  Also, be sure you have the new
Microsoft Video for Windows Runtime modules, ver. 1.1.  They
are available on the Microsoft BBS, among other places.

Subject: XWing Music Cutting problem.

This is to the person that was having problems with the music cutting 
out in XWing flight sequences. If you're using QEMM, Make sure you are 
not in stealth mode. If you are, it cuts off the music. You might also 
have to specify the RAM option. Not sure about that though.

		computer's motherboard isn't really 'grounded' and you could
		probably use a GLI.
