That guy would be me. I've done a lot: GUS lowlevel API for the driver
(DMA routines, voice handling routines, interrupt stuff) for GUS.
I am not going to support GUS MAX, since it has nothing special
but a WSS CODEC, which I have been unable to enable. The WSS driver
could be hacked for this purpose. I don't own an Interwave,
so IW users must use the GF1 mode.
And secondly, I've hacked up DIGMID for use as the MIDI driver
core. Patch caching will NOT be implemented. (Why? the original
patch set is 5.6 megs, guess what memory usage) I will use a generic
patch set (i've extracted the instrument list from the midis provided
by gravis), a method employed by libraries such as DMX (doom) and
HMI (descent).
So far it plays midis as incorrectly as it can :-) and crashes on
seeks.
