Allegro doesn't currently have any driver for the EMU8000 part of the AWE/SB32, so yes, it will just use the Adlib synth driver (which incidentally is the same thing as the OPL). Solution: write a native EMU8000 MIDI driver. A couple of people have recently expressed interest in working on this - if you are interested in helping out I can put you in touch with them and point you towards all the EMU8000 information I've managed to locate (unfortunately not a great deal at the moment). -- Shawn Hargreaves - shawn AT talula DOT demon DOT co DOT uk - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/ Beauty is a French phonetic corruption of a short cloth neck ornament.
