- ULTRINIT.EXE grabs the interrupt that your gusmax is on. I would guess that
- your MAX is using the same interrupt or baseaddress as something else in your
- computer. (Maybe even the regular GUS). For example, I have had a simular
- problem with my SCSI tape drive in OS/2. At times, when I tried to use the
- same irq that my gus was using as the MIDI-IRQ, I had to boot dos and run
- the little tape-backup check utility. It grabbed the interrupt, then I had
- to boot OS/2 to use the drive. Same concept, I'm sure..

- Subject: ULTRINIT and GUS MAX

- Hi,
-
- I'm using both a GUS and GUS MAX under a little known operating system
- (QNX) that provides a driver for the GUS (luckily). Unfortunately it
- doesn't work with the MAX unless I boot into DOS first, run
- ULTRINIT and then reboot back into QNX. What does ULTRINIT
- do differently with a MAX than with a GUS? My own code written using
- the SDK has the same problem so I don't think it's just a case of
- the output being disabled. Ideally I'd like to replicate the
- actions of ULTRINIT but I haven't seen the source for it anywhere
- (unsurprisingly). Can anyone help me?

- Subject: ULTRADRV.TPU & DMA
-
- I'm currently writing (or at least, attempting to) a wave-table midi-engine
- using the UltraDrv unit provided with the SDK. I have two problems which
- someone may be able to help with.
-
- 1) Downloading sample data to GUS DRAM. It seems that UltraDownLoad may have
- an error in it (It could be my fault, but I'm sure it's not!). Downloading
- data to some parts of memory works fine, the sample data is fine, but at
- certain memory positions, the data is completely corrupted. I am using
- UltraGetMem to allocate the memory position to download to, so there is no
- problem with it not being a multiple of 32 bytes. Also, there is nothing
- wrong my DRAM, because I have tried poking the data in byte-by-byte, which
- works (but is slooooow!).
- Is there a bug in UltraDownLoad, or could it be something else?
-
- 2) I am using volume ramping interrupts for enveloping. After I have enabled
- interrupts (UltraVectorVolume with VolumeIRQ enabled), I cannot stop them,
- even using UltraStopVoice.
- How do I do this without changing the UltraDrv code?
-
- Any help would be very much appreciated.
