Does anyone have a fix for the midis now? The link no longer works in the original post.

Just download this program instead, is more modern and lets you change MIDI in real-time:
https://coolsoft.altervista.org/en/virtualmidisynth For the soundfonts use this link https://archive.org/download/soundfonts_201910: I highly recommend the ChoriumRevA.sf2 and if you feel nostalgic and wanna listen to the game just as you would have done back in 1999 with an Soundblaster AWE 32/64 download the AWEROMGM.sf2 A lot of nice sf2 out there, but i vote for those 2 as the best from that list. | ||

Synthusr-samplefix is night and day different from FluidR3. FluidR3 might be good for general purpose, but it mangles EQ midis. | |||

Actually 1mgm, synthus2 and synthus were the best combination on Qsynth on linux. Synthusr-samplefix might combine them, but it does not sound the same.

Necrobumping to highlight Merlin_GMV32 as a sound font. It's extremely balanced instrumentation and sounds great on EverQuest midis. Kelethin sounds like itself... but better. Just got back into EQ again and spent hours trying different SF2s to retain the same feel, but improve it.
Available here: https://archive.org/download/free-so...ts-sf2-2019-04 Titanic 200 GM-GS is also good, and better in horns (imo) than Merlin: https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts/1720 -- the string on nro3 sound fantastic with this. Literal goosebumps when I heard it the first time.

I recently purchased a modular (MIDI) sound canvas to bring life back to vintage game music. Does anybody know how I might be able to route the original EQ midi music playback through my external sound canvas via MIDI? I'm using a USB-to-MIDI adapter to my Roland SC-55.
I think it's what you guys are doing with system sound fonts, but instead of the system generating the sound, the external MIDI device would create the sound. Any thoughts? | ||

If I got an actual soundblaster 32 awe woudl it even be possible to run on a modern PC? i run a modius DAC from my studio speakers to USB on the PC. Is there a way I could funnel a soundblaster to run only on EQ to give native MIDI sound with no emulation?

EDIT: Listened to that F-Zero sample.....It definitely sounds way different from the original SNES version, as I have an original SNES cartridge plugged into my CRT right next to the PC here, haha. But it's not bad...It's just, way less "crunchy" than the retro sound I am used to, a bit too high on treble I think with certain instruments.

I cant even get the coolsynth midi to kick in at ALL even using the built in mapper as well as the seperate download. I also made sure the midis were set to kick out to my speakers which I know is obvious but I am at my wits end of troubleshooting on this new pc with win11. Going to try the emt overwrites and ignore the midi player i guess.
