Soundscape S-2000 Release Notes version 1.20
Date: 12/08/94
This document describes changes made to the Soundscape software v 1.20
**Installation**
1) Installation program will now check for a previous CD-ROM install.
If it detects Soundscape CD-ROM drivers in your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT
it will not overwrite them.
**SSInit**
SSInit now downloads both the General MIDI firmware and the FM firmware.
Previous versions of Soundscape software requrired the Soundscape card
to be redownloaded when switching between GM and FM mode. This is no longer
necessary.
The SSInit command-line interface has changed. To initialize the Soundscape
card type SSINIT /I. This is done at boot-up time.
The Hardware Test page has changed. To Test your current hardware
settings select Hardware Tests, then select either IRQ or DMA Test. These
tests will show conflicts with the current hardware settings. If there is a
conflict, it can be resolved by making changes on the Hardware Settings page
in SSInit.
The Synth Settings screen has been removed.
A MIDI Settings screen has been added to SSInit. Under DOS MIDI data can go
to either the internal synth or the external MIDI port. The MIDI settings
screen allows you to route your MIDI data to either the Internal Synth or
External MIDI port. The default for the MIDI routing is the Internal
Synthesizer.
**MT32**
A new utiltiy has been added to allow switching between the General MIDI patch
set and the MT32 patch set. To switch between the patches you need to run
the MT32 command. The arguments for MT32 are as follows:
MT32 [ ON | OFF ] [ /? ]
Where ON switches to the MT32 patch set, OFF switches to the General MIDI set.
MT32 without any arguments returns the current patch set.
**Windows**
SSINITGM.DLL has changed to handle the new firmware.
