New soundcard owner question:

How can I play .ROL files on my Ultrasound?  Windows, DOS, or file converter
options are all acceptable - I'd just like to play a file I got from
alt.binaries.sounds.misc.  Thanks.

In response to Ian Mercado's report that his computer won't boot completely
with the case on:
Have you tried a boot disk? - If so, and no difference, you may be dealing
with something I encountered many years ago with my Atari 800 and RANA
systems disk drive. It would not read/write correctly with the case on, but
with it off- No problems. That was 7th grade, and my assumption was that the
drive's internals were afraid of the dark. But, after a few
physics/electronics classes, I found that I had a floating ground. when the
case is on, the one place that the drive connects it's internal ground to
chassis ground is intermittent. This caused the intermittent read/writes. In
your case, it may be that a screw from the case pushes against the
motherboard, or it could be that because of paint, etc, the case is not truly
grounded. this could cause stray currents in your case, and cause currents to
be inducted into some of the computer's chips.
     Anyway, I am waiting until the beginning of next year to get my GUS. A
friend found one at a local store, and hopefully I will be able to get one.
Its nice to know that so many people are so gung-ho about new (and better)
technologies - it restores some confidence in the future of the computer
industry.

I'm sold on the GUS. However, I haven't bought one yet as I'd like to
know if you have a driver for OS/2. There are about a million OS/2 users
out there, and no defacto standard has yet occured for sound on OS/2.

There has been a lot of questions on the usenet group comp.os.os2.misc
regarding this subject, but no answers!

I think that Gravis can get the lead if they act fast.
Sound Blaster already has a beta driver available, and the early bird
gets the worm.

How about a status update!

Thanks in advance.

You have to load SBOS high.  To do this, make a batch file with the
following commands:

@echo off
lh sbosdrv
loadsbos %1 %2 %3 %4

Name the file sboshi.bat and place it in your ultrasnd directory.  Run
it each time you want SBOS to load high.

BTW, I've heard that the old version of SBOS will not work properly with
Falcon 3.0 when loaded high, so this solution may solve one problem and
introduce another.  Look for SBOS 1.22 if this turns out to be the case.

I saw the GUS at Fry's yesterday for $169.99, they had about 10 of
them on the shelf.

On another note...
It seems I'm missing alot of information about what exactly comes with the GUS.
In my manuals, there's absolutely no information about the midi instruments,
and I only get patch numbers in windows, and I have yet to get even the faintest
acknowledgement of the fact I have a GUS from GRAVIS.

Anybody else feel this way....?

Also, when people are loading up to epas, could somebody atleast supply the
full name of the site and the full directory path where the stuff is loaded
in the proper case (ie if its in 'UPLOADS' write 'UPLOADS' and not 'uploads'
since I have to ftp by mail and I can't 'look-around' the site to find out
where the stuff really is).


Thanks in advance.

 Well I'm one of the unlucky people who have a great sounding GUS on a
 flaky motherboard with an OPTI chipset.  Actually flidemo and mididemo
 worked fine.  The media player in windows worked perfectly with the
 midi files that came with the GUS.  Then I got StarControl II and that
 is when I discovered that my motherboard has an OPTI chipset with a
 flaky DMA controller.  I came upgrade my ISA motherboard to an EISA
 for about $370.  My question is: do any of the current GUS owners
 use it on an EISA bus computer?  I would like to know if this works before
 I plop down the money.....  Thanks

I don't think you will find this to work.

According to my IBMPC manual :

For a start, pin 5 is a ground not  '> 5  - Joystick 1, Y Coord In'
pin 6 is Joystick 1, Y Coord In not '> 6  - Joystick 1, Button 2 In'
pin 7 is Joystick 1, Button 2 In

A lot will depend on whether the joystick manufacturers have stuck with
IBM's specification or not as IBM specify that Joystick A gets its
power from pin 1 and its ground from pin 4 and joystick B gets its
power from pin 9 and its ground from pin 12.

As yet, I don't have a Joystick to hand so I can't check this out, but
looking at the soundblaster pinouts, it doesn't look like it, as pin 9
which the joystick expects to be a +5v rail is used by the soundblaster
as MIDI RX.

Also I don't know if the buffer and 220R resistor as required to keep
within the MIDI specification for the MIDI out, exist on the GUS card
or has to be added externally.

I feel that we have been let down by GRAVIS in not having access to
this information. I would also like to know what the specifications for
the  audio inputs / outputs are.

Subject: MIDI connector
To: Ultrasound Daily Digest <[e-mail]>

Okay, here comes some corrections regarding MIDI connectors, and this
time I've got it all from Gravis, so it's supposed to be right:

The SB MIDI connector CANNOT be used without modification. The
modification required is to replace the 6N136 (I think it was) circuit
in the SB connector with a 6N138, alternatively adding 5.6K
ressistors between legs 5-7, and 5-6.

This is what I was told. Why we have been told the SB connector
can be used without modifications, I have no explanation for. Perhaps
it can, I'm no guru on electronics.

Here's my story:

I've got:
Comtrade 486/33
Local Bus S3 video
4 Mb ram
210 Mb IDE HD

DOS 5.0
Windows 3.1
Nothing special....the box is pretty empty right now

OPTi chipset(if I remember right...haven't opened it up in awhile)


GUS works great on DMA 1....Kills my computer on 7...haven't played with
anything else...

Absolutely no problems with installation (except for standard Setup crashes)
and everything runs fine.
I haven't tried too many games yet, but the ones I have all work with the
settings that everyone else is using...

Conclusion:
IMO, the problems with the OPTi chipsets are not that bad...the sounds I get noware still incredible, so what if I can't use the 16 bit(?) DMA...I only paid $99
for the damn thing....that's less than 4% of what I paid for the computer.....
not a big deal..

There are some out there that don't want to buy the GUS because of the OPTi
problem... Not a good enough excuse. The GUS is still a great soundcard.

Just my 2 cents

I ordered it on Monday night, and receive it on Friday.
Don't have to wait for 3-4 months.  :-)
My card is Rev 2.4, and the software is v2.1.
The installation is very easy, in spite of the horror
stories that I read on the digest.
Has anyone been able to use BoomBox software (from Dr. T's)
with the GUS ??
(Btw, the installation menu of BoomBox is identical to
the one for GUS).

To: Ultrasound Daily Digest <[e-mail]>

I've had better luck with the new SBOS, but it still doesn't work all
that well with the "demos" I've downloaded from ftp.uwp.edu /pub/msdos/demos.
In fact, most of them just crash, requiring a cold boot to get my computer
to work again.   However, more of them work now than with the old SBOS.  Inca
demo, for instance runs perfectly (except for some bad timing of explosions
and flybys.)

I can run vv, theparty, and several others WITHOUT sound, but when I run SBOS,
and turn on the sound...CRASH!   Has anyone else managed to get these demos
to work?  I especially would like to run unreal, but even without SBOS it tells
me that I'm 9K shy of enough memory (600k free).

Can anyone explain to me how to load DOS and SBOS into high memory, so that
I'll have enough base mem to run things like this?

I can add another to your list - the main reason I'm not using OS/2 is

Gravis hasn't released a driver yet, and I don't think one is in the

Hi,

No.  This is how playmidi works.

Playmidi first reads the entire midi file into the PC's memory.  MIDI
files are not well structured.  All of the events for different tracks
have to be sorted and made into a single track before they can be
played.  This sorting takes a lot of memory.  Up to this point, playmidi
will report "out of memory" if it can't allocate memory.  During the
sort, playmidi finds the list of patches that need to get loaded.  In
order to load patches, there has to be a 64K buffer (pc's) memory which
can be used to DMA data from the PC down to the card.  If playmidi can't
allocate that buffer, "Out of memory (hold_buffer)!" will be reported.
Once you make it past that point, the patches start to get loaded. If
a patch won't fit into the card, a "load patch failed - 7"
message is reported.

Playmidi was only intended for playing the demo files and relatively
short pieces.  It could have been written more like a multitrack
sequencer and used disk caching to save pc memory.  Window's on the
other hand is much more effecient with it's memory allocation.  If you
can't play a huge .mid file from DOS, try Windows, or wait a few months
until somebody writes a good DOS midi sequencer.

Of course, if you REALLY want to hear an extremely huge .mid file, go
out and buy a general midi keyboard, and attach it to the GUS.  THen
use playmidi -m file.mid to play the midi file through your keyboard.

Hello GUSers,
this is my first post to the Ultrasound digest, but hopefully
not my last.  I paid $155 for the card, a little high, but all
I had to do to get it was drive to my local Games -n- Gadgets
and get it.. they had plenty.  Anyways, I called the tech line
at Gravis to ask about some memory chips that I had lying around
to see if they would work.. here is the rather interesting
conversation:

ring..ring..ring..ring..ring..ring..ring..ring..ring..
  Uh Hello, I mean Gravis.

me: hello.. I have a question concerning my Ultrasound card
    that I hope you can help me with.  I have 6 44c4265-70
    chips that I would like to use to upgrade to 1 meg on
    the card, will the faster chips work?

tech: uh, I dont know.. what kid of chips does the book call
      for?

me: hmm.. <flipping pages> 44c4256-10

tech: uh, then you should probably use them.

me: but I was led to believe, in my limited computer experience,
    that my chips will work as long as they are 100ns or faster,
    which these are, 70ns.

tech: uh, dont know.. maybe..

me: can you find out? or will that be too much trouble?

tech: hmm.. dunno..

me: ok.. thanks for all your help <sarcastically>.  My
    second question is how much will the daughter board
    for the Ultrasound card cost?

tech: what daughterboard?

me: the one that will allow me to record in 16 bits.

tech: I dont know.. it isnt available yet.. probably $100 -$150
      or so.

me: do you know when it will be for sale?

tech: dunno

me: well thanks a LOT for all the help you have been

tech: uh-huh

<click>

I was amazed by the lack of intelligence on the other end of
the phone.  If all the people are Gravis are like that, I am
wondering how they even get around to creating the cards.  I
had to go to a local computer store and sit down with a
good friend and talk to him about the card, and he explained
the card in better detail.  I'm finished whining now.. Just a
little food for thought Gravis, try to higher competent people
to answer the tech support line.  Maybe looking for employee's at
the drug and alchohol rehab isnt a good place interview!

The only time I have ever got a 'Out of memory (hold_buffer)' msg,
was back when I tried some of my system RAM on the GUS, leaving the
PC with only 512KB  and the GUS with 768 (!). It thus seems logical
that this msg also refer to PC memory shortage.

Gravis has a beta-version of a patch-loader for Windows running, and
are planning to include it with GUS-shipments within a few weeks.

I suspect you would have to wait a while, awaiting the new, improved,

They are working on OS/2 support. How far the project has got, I
don't know, but they're definitively working on it.

buyer pays what ever shipping they decide on.  No offers under $140.  The
shipping will be added to that price.  Don't flame about price, because I
paid more than that and I understand the supply is still limited before
Xmas.

    Well, my previous USD posting was about static. Well, I first
thought it was my card, but no, its not the card, as I just exchanged
it today, and found that this one show the exact same problem. After
a nice meeting with Francois Dion, we discussed patch, and we ended up
that the GUS was a nice card, but MANY patches NEED to be redone, or
reworked in a such way that clipping should not occur when those
patches are used in a high volume situation, or when many notes of
the same patch are played simultaneously.

    Is there any inside information regarding Gravis and a possible
upgrade in their patches? Right now, some of them sucks, and the static
is almost unbearable. Just for the sake of it, just try 'ragtime.mid',
which you can find in archive.epas.utoronto.ca. This file will show you
what I mean by "static".  I just hope this "static" problem is
patch (and/or software related) and *NOT* hardware related, cause I will
then KNOW why this card got a so low price...

    THIS IS NOT A FLAME at GRAVIS, or the GUS in general, as I find
most of it superb and blow away SB and SBpro out of the water, but
as an ex-Amiga user, be sure I wouldn't show of this card the way it
is right now to other Amiga fans.

    It would be fun if this message would be re-directed to a Gravis
representative (Chris Yuzik, do you read me?), I want to know when this
will be fixed.
