- or better. If you are using an XT, see ADLIBXT.EXE
-

- Stereo-F/X or VGAStereo-F/X Card. It is intended for use on XT
- class machines. If you are using an AT (286) or better, see

-
- MIATORXT.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver MIATORXT.EXE is for Key Electronic's
- MIDIATOR interface models 101 and 103. It is intended for use
- on an XT class machine. If you are using an AT (286) or better,
- see MIDIATOR.EXE.
-
- To load the driver, use the following command line format:
-
- MIATORXT [/Cx] [/Pn]
- (brackets [] mean the parameter is optional)
-
- where 'x' is COM port number the device is attached to, and 'n' is
- the number of output ports the device has. The /C parameter
- defaults to COM1, if the device is attached to COM2, COM3, or COM4,
- the /C MUST specify the proper COM port. The /P parameter is only
- necessary if you are using the model 103 interface. In this case
- 'n' would be 3 to indicate three output ports. For example if you
- are using a model 103 attached to COM2, the command line would be
- as follows:
-
- MIATORXT /C2 /P3

- MPU401.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver MPU401.EXE is for Roland's MPU401
- MIDI interface, or any card compatable with the UART mode of this
- device. It requires an AT (286) class machine or better. If you
- are using an XT, see MPU401XT.EXE.
-
- To load the driver, use the following command line format:
-
- MPU401 [/Ahhhh] [/Ix]
- (brackets [] mean the parameter is optional)
-
- where 'hhhh' is the I/O address of the device in hexadecimal, and
- 'x' is the interrupt request number the device uses.
- The /A parameter defaults to 0330, and the /I parameter defaults
- to interrupt 2. These are the factory settings for most cards.
- If these settings are used by your card, no command line parameters
- are required. If your card is not set to these defaults, the
- parameter that is different MUST be specified on the command line.
- For example, if your card is set for I/O address 220 and interrupt
- 5, your command line would look as follows:
-
- MPU401 /A0220 /I5
-
- MPU401XT.EXE

-
- PAS.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver PAS.EXE is for Media Vision's
- Pro Audio Spectrum card. It requires an AT (286) class machine
- or better. If you are using an XT, see PASXT.EXE.
-
- This Driver is self configuring and takes no command line parameters.
-
- PASXT.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver PASXT.EXE is for Media Vision's
- Pro Audio Spectrum card. It is intended for use on an XT class
- machine. If you are using an AT (286) or better, see PAS.EXE.
-
- This Driver is self configuring and takes no command line parameters.
-
- SB.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver SB.EXE is for Creative Labs' Sound
- Blaster or Sound Blaster Pro card or any card 100% compatible with
- one of these. It requires an AT (286) class machine or better. If
- you are using an XT, see SBXT.EXE.
-
- To load the driver, use the following command line format:
-
- SB [/Ahhhh] [/Ix] [/Dc] [/S] [/4]
- (brackets [] mean the parameter is optional)
-
- where 'hhhh' is the I/O address of the device in hexadecimal, 'x'
- is the interrupt request number the device uses, and 'c' is the DMA
- channel used. The /S parameter tells the driver that you are using
- a Sound Blaster PRO, allowing Stereo panning of FM sounds. The /4
- parameter is for non-MIDI applications; it reduces the amount of
- CPU overhead used by the driver when the application is running.
- The /A parameter defaults to 0220, the /I parameter defaults to
- interrupt 7, and the /D parameter defualts to DMA channel 1. These
- are the factory settings for most cards. If these settings are used
- by your card, these command line parameters are not required. If your
- card is not set to these defaults, the parameter that is different
- MUST be specified on the command line. For example, if your card is
- set for I/O address 240, interrupt 5, and DMA channel 2, your command
- line would look as follows:
-
- SB /A0240 /I5 /D2
-
- If the card was a Sound Blaster Pro, /S would be added, and if you
- were running a non-MIDI application such as Dr.T's BoomBox, the /4
- parameter could be added.
-
- SBXT.EXE
-
- The Dr.T's MIDI Device Driver SBXT.EXE is for Creative Labs' Sound
- Blaster or Sound Blaster Pro card or any card 100% compatable with
- one of these. It is intended for use on an XT class machine. If
