Hello

I have set "MIXER MASTER 75:75" in the Dosbox, but I only want to change the volume of the MIDI. Is this possible?
In the game I have set General MIDI for music and Sound Blaster for sounds.

How to change only MIDI? On the site http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/MIXER it does not say about GENERAL MIDI.

MASTER
DISNEY
SPKR
GUS
SB
FM

What about General MIDI. Will FM be good for that?

I think DOSBox merely passes the MIDI messages to Windows, it doesn't actually play them. Hence, there is no volume setting for MIDI in DOSBox. FM is different, it refers to Adlib and Soundblaster music that DOSBox emulates and plays.

If you have installed e.g. CoolSoft VirtualMIDISynth (in order to get better sounding General MIDI music), I think it may have an option to change MIDI music volume. Check its "Shortcuts" tab.

Yes I have it installed, however when I clicked to show mixer it was only seen for like a half second and than disappeared. I could not get it back to see.
