SoftMPU 1.91 - Software MPU-401 Emulator
Copyright (C) 2013-2018 bjt, eliandaCopyright (C) 2002-2013 The DOSBox Team
Release Notes (21/01/18)
WHAT IS IT?
SoftMPU is a DOS TSR that emulates an ‘intelligent mode’ hardware MPU-401interface. It’s designed to work in tandem with the MIDI interfaces found onSound Blaster and other common sound cards.
WHY’S THIS USEFUL?
Games from the late 80s and early 90s that support music via the RolandMT-32/CM-32L often expect to find a hardware MPU-401 interface that supports‘intelligent mode’. These are now expensive and difficult to find.
By supporting the ‘intelligent mode’ features in software, these games willwork with the basic MIDI interfaces found on sound cards.
REQUIREMENTS
- EMM386 4.46+ (MS-DOS 6.2) or QEMM 7.03+
- Sound Blaster (or compatible) sound card (MPU-401 & SB-MIDI mode)
- Serial port (Serial MIDI mode)
USING SOFTMPU: MPU-401 & SB-MIDI MODE
Run SoftMPU specifying the base port address and interrupt of your SoundBlaster, and the base port address of the MPU-401 interface, e.g.
SOFTMPU.EXE /SB:220 /IRQ:5 /MPU:330
The optional /OUTPUT:SBMIDI switch forces Sound Blaster MIDI to be used. Thismode is intended for use with the Sound Blaster Pro 2 and other sound cardswithout a hardware MPU-401 interface. Game compatibility may be reduced.
USING SOFTMPU: SERIAL MIDI MODE
Run SoftMPU specifying the serial interface to be used and the base portaddress of the MPU-401 interface, e.g.
SOFTMPU.EXE /MPU:330 /OUTPUT:COM1

A Sound Blaster base port address and IRQ can optionally be specified ifMPU-401 interrupts are required.
FURTHER OPTIONS
The optional /DELAYSYSEX switch enables small transmission delays to preventbuffer overflow with the Rev.0 MT-32.
The optional /RA50 switch enables simulated “All Notes Off” commands forcompatibility with the Roland RA-50.
SoftMPU will remain active until the PC is restarted. It occupiesapproximately 8KB and can be loaded into high memory using the LH command.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem: When using a PS/2 mouse, moving the cursor causes slow playback.Solution: Use a mouse driver that supports direct hardware access e.g. CuteMouse 2.0 (but not 2.1).
Problem: Some games expect to find an MPU interface on IRQ 2, but my sound but my sound card doesn’t support it.Solution: Configure your sound card to use IRQ 9.
Problem: SoftMPU can’t find a hardware MPU interface when using a Sound Blaster Pro 2 or older sound card.Solution: Run SoftMPU with the /OUTPUT:SBMIDI switch.
Problem: My Rev.0 MT-32 displays “EXC. BUFFER OVERFLOW”. Music playback sounds incorrect.Solution: Run SoftMPU with the /DELAYSYSEX switch.
Problem: Music playback stops working after running a specific program.Solution: Restart your PC. Software that reprograms the Real-Time Clock will stop SoftMPU from working correctly.
FURTHER INFO

BUILDING SOFTMPU
Microsoft C 6.0A & MASM 6.11 are required (earlier versions may work, but areuntested).
The default install directories are C:C600 and C:MASM611. You will need toedit BUILD.BAT if you have selected different install directories.

DFX Audio Enhancer is a cool and useful tool which gives your PC's sound output a little bit of a boost and an enhancement with many different options available for audiophiles. It marginally improves sound quality coming from your PC.
The producer of DFX claims that it supports YouTube, Pandora, NetFlix and others.. but it actually supports all sound produced by your PC. Similar to sound enhancements provided by your sound card manufacturer, DFX Audio Enhancer emulates 3D surround sound, Bass Boost, HD restoration and sound-type optimizations.
Included with this package is a spectrum analyzer which is a graphical display of the sound currently being played.
The interface of DFX looks rather dated and could probably use an update but looking past that, DFX Audio Enhancer does have some qualities and the enriched sound produced by the PC is noticeable.
Unless your audio driver provides sufficient audio enhancements, give DFX a try and play around with it a little bit to see what sounds better from your speakers or headphones.
Features and highlights
- 3D Surround Sound: Immerse yourself inside the music
- Booming HyperBass: Produce deeper, richer bass
- Stereo Ambiance: Renew lost stereo depth and body
- High Fidelity Restoration: Eliminate that âmuffledâ sound
- Dynamic Audio Boost: Pump up the volume to new heights
- Spectrum Analyzer: 'See' DFX enhance your sound
- Headphones Optimization: Hear more pleasant, natural sounds with headphones
