I had the memory installed and played with it. But didn’t have anything amazing in terms of custom stuff. As I recall it had several synth wavetables as standard. I vaguely remember being able to choose between MT32 and GS (and maybe something else too) giving somewhat different sounds to each “instrument” available.
I know if I loaded a midi file, to get the best sound you’d often need to choose between those options. But at the time, I knew very little about the technical side of the midi capabilities.
Ah man. MIDI on my sound blaster awe32. The good old days.
Did you ever load sound fonts onto that thing? That was the real shit, like having your own Fairlight synthesizer - for a bit less than $75K.
