- Subject: Computer Music bibliography
-
- There is a bibliography on synthesizers, midi, computer and electronic
- music that I have collected from various sources. I have tried to bring
- some structure into it, but not all books will fit into a single subject.
- NOTE: I haven't read these books, and the comments are from other people.

- Subject: Win95/GUS MIDI Adapter
-
- Hi all musicians still using a GUS.
-
- First off I can't believ that there hasn't been a rash of mail from any of
- the GUS groups about the Win95 drivers. They just aren't working for me and
- I can't believe they are working for all of you.
-
- Here's my problem. I seem to recall when I was using the Win3.1 drivers
- under Windows 95 that the MIDI tab in the Multimedia Control Panel had the
- "Add New Instrument" button enabled. Using the Win95 drivers for the GUS
- this is enabled.
- In fact I get no reference to the MIDI output port anywhere.
-
- If anyone out there is seeing what I am not, please let me know. Do I need
- to install ultmport.drv. If so how? Win.ini, sys.ini, registry?
-
- My K2000 misses being connected to my GUS.
-
- Note I have no GUS drivers installed in config.sys or autoexec.bat. The
- only GUS related line that is not rem'd out in my autoexec.bat is
-
- @SET ULTRADIR=C:\ULTRASND
-
- which I need or else Win95 complains on start up (however, the drivers still
- work).
-
- Thanks,
-

- Good point, I had not even tried it yet. I guess you want to map to the
- external
- port? I don't see any way to do it either. Not from Cakewalk or Media Player,
- anyway. It seems external port may be defined by an Instrument
- Definition File at best, and if at all with the current driver version.
-
- >From the "Known Problems" section of the Readme:
-
- 2) These drivers do not come with their own midi map configuration.
- If you are presented a choice between Ultrasound MIDI Synth and MIDI
- Mapper, choose Ultrasound MIDI Synth, or create your own MIDI Map.
-
- But how do we do that, Gravis?
