I am really glad to hear you have this equipment, Bill. I was planning on writing a decent chunk about what I have learned about Roland devices, getting them to work properly on the PC, etc, however I wasn't sure how many people would be interested in the details. Awesome. Internal card, eh? Is that the LAPC-I? That card (with breakout box) is a pretty expensive item.
I *think* it's the LAPC-I, but I can't be sure until I take a look again. I had assumed it was a requirement to interface the MT-32 with the computer, as it seems to have a direct connect port for it, but in looking it up now, I guess it's an enhancement to it (do you know how you would interface the MT-32 without the card?). I was always planning on comparing the MIDI output of the Sierra games with that setup versus an Atari ST setup.
