MT-32 Support

[qweilun]

Hello all, I just got MT-32 working on Monkey Island 2 for the first time. It sounds quite decent but I can tell something's not right.

I've looked over the post at http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=9138 but wasn't able to reply for some reason.

Has there been any progress on MT-32 support, and what remains to be done?
Do I have the correct ROM files, and if not, how do I legally obtain correct ones? My ROM files' md5sums are:

5626206284b22c2734f3e9efefcd2675 MT32_CONTROL.ROM
89e42e386e82e0cacb4a2704a03706ca MT32_PCM.ROM

Thanks for the help.

By the way, the specific issue I noticed was that some, but not all instruments seem to be following incorrect ADSR envelopes.

For example:

In the intro music, the voice playing the main melody sustains or releases for much too long so everything sounds washed out. It doesn't sound nearly as good as:

In the town on Scabb Island, there seems to be an accordion playing notes 50-100 ms long. That sounds quite awkward.

In general, bass is quiet or absent, it's hard to tell.

I don't know how out of date the emulator in ScummVM is, but there has been significant progress made on the Munt emulator, but it is still a work in progress. If you wish ask specific questions about the emulator, you can find the developers in this thread on VOGONS.

I guess I'm out of luck in that case. I had a look at the munt website and it's only for windows.

Unless someone had the time and energy to port Munt to linux...

No, you are not out of luck. You just have to wait. Munt is being developed for both Mac and Linux, too. Besides, it is just a matter of time before it gets updated for ScummVM, too.

Wait so where did you get those ROMs?
The legal way to obtain them is from an MT-32.
