You will get a set of full featured libraries /API based on MIDI messages. 2) What's new ============== a) Windows API - Vienna2 API added - Win95 support added - NRPN support for SF2 b) EMU8000 programmmer's guide - EMU8000 registers documentation added NOTE : This is a highly technical documentation. It is meant for experienced developers who would like to develop special purpose drivers/libraries/applications that are not supported or not possible to be implemented by our libraries/API. c) SF2 DOS library Now the AWEDIP comes with 2 sets of libraries. 1 to support SBK (SoundFont 1) and another set to support SF2 (SoundFont 2). Major differences between these 2 sets of libraries: SBKLIB SF2LIB ====== ====== i) NRPN support YES NO ii) Embeded GM YES NO preset When using SF2 library, your application need to load the GM presets at runtime. A SF2 GM preset ( SYNTHGM.SF2 ) is included. This gives you an option to load customized presets. d) Documentation in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format(PDF) - Documentation are now in PDF format for easy viewing and printing.
