The rep from Ensoniq I talked to said that they were going to target their 
soundcard for the professional market, and distribute it through their 
traditional channels. They would leave the PC soundboard (games etc..) to 
the manufacturers buying their chipset.

The original version of Chuck Yeager's Air Combat did not support the GUS
(as the game was written long before the GUS was even a gleam in Gravis'
eye).  However, EA has rewritten the game to include GUS support, but I
haven't seen it in general release yet.  The game does exist as several
GUS beta testers have played with it.

Ok, ok.  The SBPro has 22 mono voices or 11 stereo voices.  IF a game 
supports the SBPro with 22 mono voices, do you think SBOS would support 
that?  I think not.  SBOS is made to use 11 voices.  Since the GUS IS 
stereo, those voices can be put anywhere (randomly?).  SBOS _is not_ SBPro 
compatible but its emulation _sounds like_ the SBPro.  If you choose SBPro 
in your game setup, it won't work.  See?  SBOS _sounds_ like the SBPro but 
doesn't support it.

SBOS != SOUND BLASTER PRO.

I'll buy it when I can - and I allready have a SB Pro (not much of a

Note that sbosdrv.exe and loadsbos.exe are located in *two* places:
in \ultrasnd and \ultrasnd\sbos (assuming you've used the default
directory names).  The one in your path is probably the one in
\ultrasnd, so if you only copy over the one in \ultrasnd\sbos, you'll
still be running your old version in \ultrasnd.

BTW, when I run the sbos I got from GUS0008.EXE, it definitely says,
'SBOS version 1.22'.

Hi there,
    
    I have been watching on the group, and looking for GUS for
 a long time.  But here in Taiwan I cannot find a dealer for
 it, and everything, if thru the dealer.. they got very expen-
 sive..  Take PAS16 for an example, they asked for NT8000, about 
 $320.  But I read from the FAQ the PAS-16 is about $215 in USA.
 
    So, the problem is..  where I can get a GUS cheaply?  Can
 GUS shipped from USA directly?  Or can someone help me to get 
 one?  I hope can get it for $130-160..  I am a student..

    Besides, I have ISA 486-50 with ETEQ chipset.  I ever had
 problem with SoundBlaster V2.0,  but after I switched to a
 compatible card made in Taiwan, no more problem.  Can it causes
 the same problem?  (I saw it has some problem about Opti chipset
 .  How about this one?)  

    Thanks in advance..

	Mine is shiny red and I was among the firsts who receive the board.  
My board is only two slots away from my video card (that's where my old SB 
was) and my modem is right between them.  When I dial, I don't hear a single 
thing and when there's something going on on the screen or when my HD is 
spinning, I don't hear anything coming from my Ultrasound.  Even if I put 
the volume at max (my system has 200 watts speakers).  When I turn the 
volume at max, I only hear the threathening humm of the amplifier.  So I 
assumed the board was sheilded because that's what I read from a preview of 
the board from Gravis in the Sound Newsletter (February '92).  And with my 
old SB, it was making noise like hell.

One note to all those people out there who think you can write to a ROM,
ROM stands for Read ONLY Memory.  This does not matter if it is a CD or a 
Semiconductor.  The Drives that can write to CD's are a very different 
principle, using magnetics and lasers but yes they are expencive now and slow
(as compared to a Harddisk)

The problem is that TRAX doesn't support patch caching.  Gravis will
release a piece of software that allows you to easily load patches
into GUS RAM in the next couple of weeks.  It's currently being
beta tested.  Yes, it will be free and mailed to all registered GUS
owners as well as the new and complete general midi patch set.

Now, where is the rumoured World Circuit with native GUS support?

The 56K has pro-grade audio connections - balanced analog, plus digital I/O
(AES/EBU) - which the MultiSound lacks.  It was designed primarily for
pro studio use, rather than MPC apps (for which the MultiSound is targeted).
The 56K is supported by their Sound Stage digital editing system.  SS is
planned to be ported to Windows for use with the MultiSound.  The MultiSound
has the same DSP capabilities (and adds the Proteus module).

Subject: GUS 2.4 board?
Date: 12 Dec 92 08:05:07 GMT
Organization: Universite de Montreal -- Montreal, PQ, Canada


	I just saw someone posting about a 2.4 revision of
GUS board; is this board really different from the 2.2
revision, or it is just a re-worked board to take less
components? I would like everyone to take a look at
'ragtime.mid' midi-file found in archive.epas.utoronto.ca
to check if there as much static as I have on my GUS.
After a meeting with Francois Dion, we ended up with the
fact that some of GUS patches truly need to be re-worked as some
of them (noticiably acpiano1.pat) brings static and/or clipping
when playing a note with a high volume or playing many notes
at the same time. But, in general, the drumkit is incredible from
some of the .mid files I have here, just hear the drum
part of 'justify.mid' on media player (on playmidi, its being
played only on the right speaker, dunno why). Saxophones need
to be revamped but sound generally good (those patches are
the most difficult with the acoustic piano to create IMHO).

	I posted a message to GUS Digest about it, so
just take a look at it BTW.

	After some testing with module players for Windows
on my 486, WinMod PRO (dispite some major bugs) sounds
the greatest (I'm an ex-Amiga user, die-hard of Amiga sounds),
and I can assure you that at 22khz, WMP shines... (ok, I don't
know if a 386 can deliver this speed w/o bringing Windows to a crawl,
but on my system, its ok . . . sorta)

	All in all, dispite _some_ really bad patches (on
the MIDI side of the card), the GUS is a damn good beast,
and hopefully Gravis will (I truly hope) fix the patch problems,
and some third-party programmers will bring out module players for 
Windows and DOS that will take advantage of GUS' capabilities... There
must be a way to avoid the CPU mixing and let GUS do all
the dirty job... Even with a 486/33, my Windows slow-down
noticiably when playing a mod-file...

	Happy GUSing...

Make sure you record the PAS files in 22 khz mode rather than 44 khz mode since 
most sound cards cant handle 16 bit sound.  And record in mono if the target sound card
doesnt do stereo.
