If anybody want...Thanks for the article Mr Prince!<br /><br />If anybody wants to extract the instruments from Doom or other games supporting OPL2:<br /><br />1) DOSBox can output .DRO files, which are a dump of raw register writes to the OPL. So you can fire up a game, start recording with ctrl-alt-f7, then extract instruments and notes using DRO2MID by malvineous: https://github.com/Malvineous/dro2midi/commits/master<br /><br />2) There are a bunch of tools to decode legacy game file formats, for example Camoto (see also the great wiki!) http://www.shikadi.net/camotobrucehttps://bsutherland.github.io/JuceOPLVSTi/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1546344994403294616.post-60211076002259687302017-02-28T10:19:29.040-05:002017-02-28T10:19:29.040-05:00Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge, Mr. Pri...Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge, Mr. Prince! <br />A long time admirer...Rafincihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289690412325172898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1546344994403294616.post-54797641485072897232017-01-02T12:00:16.953-05:002017-01-02T12:00:16.953-05:00hello Bobby

All my .wrk files stranded! The solution was: Load up a VM (I used Vbox, and then later VMPlayer) with XP, install CW9 there. Either keep the data outside in the realworld, or copy it in, no matter. The key for the MIDI was this thing called "CopperLAN" -- it provides midi over ethernet/lan so all these machines/laptops/handhelds/DOsboxs can share midi in realtime. You publish and subscribe to various virtual ports. Worked like a charm -- now my ancient cakewalks could stream their midi ports over to the host machine daw, and onwards into the recreated or upgraded synths. Really! It's a game changer. Google "CopperLan" or try http://www.copperlan.org/. <br />Good luck!ngelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607105553794767314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1546344994403294616.post-6708157237268659242016-02-10T22:30:25.442-05:002016-02-10T22:30:25.442-05:00At the time of working on the game, I had no idea ...At the time of working on the game, I had no idea the music would be so widely remembered for decades to come.

Thank you, thank you for doing this research. It's really silly to me that they don't have a short manual for this thing. I had forgotten about the knob, it somehow got turned when moving it around, and I was wondering why the pedal wasn't doing much. <br /><br />I can't really imagine why you would want to reduce the expression range, but I suppose tuned pitch shifts could require it. <br /><br />Thanks again!
