It was fairly easy to convert MODs in WinAmp (remember WinAmp?*) You'd queue up a tracker file (WinAmp had fairly robust support for most formats), and then go into WinAmp 'plugins' and select the WaveOut Output.***. The file would stream to a WAV file of the music which you could then convert to FLAC or MP3 or whatver you wanted. It's how I got all my favorite MODs into my MP3 collection so I could listen to them on the go (there are actually tracker players for mobile devices, but it was just simpler to make them all MP3s than to juggle different players). * I bet Pepperidge Farms remembers.** ** Remember Pepperidge Farms' "Pepperidge Farms remembers" advertising campaign? No. Me neither. *** No, I didn't have this memorized. I do have WinAmp on an old PC though, so I could easily check ;-)

It can do that with pretty much /any/ file it can play; it just redirects the output to a WAV file instead of, you know, to your speakers. Of course, the QUALITY of that music file will be heavily dependent on whatever it is you use for MIDI playback. If you've got some sort of high-end Yamaha XG50 soft-synth, it'll sound terrific. If you've somehow managed to wedge a Soundblaster v1.0 with an OPL2 soundchip into your modern laptop, it'll sound a lot less good (still, kudos for getting an ISA soundcard into a 2024 laptop; that's some dark magic right there and well worth the ear-bleed ;-) The Roland Emulator (MuNT) also has a direct MIDI-to-WAV output feature, if you want to (mostly) recapture what a MIDI file would sound like to a PC gamer with high-end gear in 1989 ;-)

My detailed http://zimage.com/~ant/antfarm/about/toys.html says "...
Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 (MultiCD; also got a separate Creative
Wave Blaster II/2 to add on for it later on [unknown date] to improve
MIDI music]..." So, I had its second model.

It's useful if you have more than one PCs and just want to use one
keyboard, video, and mouse with them. ;) I discovered and fell in love
with KVMs back in the late 90s at work.

Yeah, that is what they are for and what I used them for. I would still be using a KVM switcher myself if DosBox weren't around.

The only one I still use is the Belkin F1DK102P https://www.amazon.com/Belkin-2-PORT-Switch-Keyboard-MOUSEPS/dp/B0000899ZE, and that's only for the older PCs. It's only a two-port (and the cabling is messy, and it lacks a hardware switch) but, really, it's all I need these days. Back-in-the-day, I was a much bigger fan of KVMs. Those were the days of single-core CPUs when you'd literally dedicate a whole PC to a single task; I'd have a bunch of computers stacked and switch between them at need. These days, CPUs have become powerful enough that I don't have the same need for keeping so many PCs running, and those I still have around have enough spare cycles that accessing them remotely is the easier solution. So over the years most of the KVM switches have gone to e-waste. Remoting isn't a 1-to-1 replacement for everything a KVM can do... but in most cases its good enough. Still, there was something magic about flicking that switch (or using a magic keyboard combo) and suddenly having access to an entirely different PC.

Hey, look, it's even > got a scroll-wheel! What else could a mouse have? I guess mine is kinda between these two? Roccat Kone Pure SEL is a gaming mouse but I don't think it's high-end. The RGB is just a logo on the mouse and was turned off long ago. DPI is good enough, it's adjustable but I don't think I run it at the highest setting. Two buttons, wheel (which is also a button), two side buttons. DPI adjustment buttons too. Not really programmable since the SEL in the name means it's a cost reduced version of Roccat Kone Pure. Oh yes, I've had it for some years, I think I wrote much the same thing in a previous mouse poll already.

And I back that is a sort of mesh to keep the palm less sweaty in the summer months. -- Steve IM - @countstex:matrix.org Mastodon - https://dice.camp/@countstex Bookwyrm - https://books.theunseen.city/user/Steven
