These .MID files have all (except the short ones used to change the drum set)
been converted from .MOD files by me (Pedro Timóteo). They are intended to be
played on any Wavetable General Midi device, such as the Roland SCC-1, the
Wave Blaster, the Gravis Ultrasound or the Sound Wave 32. They *can* be played
on an FM Sound Blaster (normal, Pro or 16), but frankly I don't see the
point... the .MOD files are available (except the Creeping Death one, which
isn't (yet) on any Portuguese BBS and will be used with Blagtron 4.0) on most
BBSes and sound *much* better on an SB than the .MID files.
In my opinion all these songs sound better when using the Power drum set (play
power.mid to select it). All those drum set change files also change the
chorus and reverb of the Roland to a high value, and are only meant to be
played on a Roland SCC-1 or another GS card. The other files (the songs) can
all be played on any GM card, though.
The following is a list of all the .MID files in this .ZIP, along with a short
(1 line) description, and a rating of 1 (real bad) to 5 (excellent). This
rating is not about the quality of the music itself (how well it was composed
and so on), but instead it's about the implementation (how well it sounds in
my SCC-1 considering the SCC-1's quality).
Note that a "5" doesn't mean that the SCC-1 can't do better! It just means
that the .MID file is one of the best in this .ZIP!
