Summary: MT-32 sysex messages

Initial Comment:
It'd be nice if scummvm could transmit these when using 
the MIDI option on the games that have them (Monkey 
Island 2 and Indy:FOA). That way, users with a roland 
mt32, would still be able to get correct midi music. 
Well.. it'd make me happy at least :-)

I'd like the support for the sysex stuff in Windows. I don't
have Linux installed on my PC anymore and was going to test
it under Windows after I'd reinstalled my Windows compiler.
I don't think my USB midi output works under Linux.
I'm dying to try this as I've wanted MT32 support in ScummVM
for a long time.

The SEQ driver is not usable under MacOS,if you wanted to
know that, Jamieson :-)

I guess an update is in order. MT-32 SysEx output is 
currently available in first-revision under the -eseq music driver 
(hence only Unix/Linux -- and Mac too?). In order to drive a 
native MT-32 device, make sure to set "#define 
NATIVE_MT32 true" at the top of 
scummvm/scumm/instrument.h. (It is defined to be "false" by 
default. Someday we'll make it a command-line option.)

I think the SysEx implementation itself is working fine, and 
any problems we're having with instruments have been 
plaguing us since the emulated MT-32 days.

If anyone is using the -ewindows music driver and has an MT-
32 they would like to test with ScummVM, post here and I 
will see about putting in Windows MMSYSTEM SysEx 
capability. Otherwise, I won't be touching this for a couple 
months until other projects are put to bed.

I'll gladly help with testing the code, I have an MT-32.

I'm picking this up. Enhanced MT-32 support is in 
development, and this will come with the bargain. In the 
meantime, who is this? We could always use people with an 
MT-32 to test our code. It's tough to find an MT-32 owner 
these days. :)
