Use Microsoft's MIDI Mapper on Windows 3.1 or 3.11:
All the MIDI songs files in MIDI Made Music for Windows Shareware Version
were designed to be played using Microsoft's MIDI Mapper. You should always
use the MIDI Mapper when playing any of the MIDI Made Music for Windows songs.
One point to remember when working with the MIDI Mapper is that all MIDI Made
Music songs contain two performances of the same song in one file. You will
need to have either channels 1 through 10 active for extended level sound
cards (like Sound Blaster Awe 32 or Advanced Gravis) or channels 13 through 16
active for base level sound cards (like Sound Blaster Pro or Media Vision Pro
AudioSpectrum 16). You do not want to have all channels active when playing
MIDI Made Music since this might result in a less than desirable sound.
