                     GENERAL MIDI FOR THE MT-32 v1.0

   ======================================================================

   This Archive should contain the following files:
   
   1. MT32GM1.0, This file contains timbre, patch, rhythm & system data.

   2. GMText, Ascii text of the GM patch map approved by the MMA.

   3. 22 files that begin with either PART or PRT. These small files will
      help you manage the MT32 by turning parts off or shifting them to 
      different MIDI channels.                                           
      ex: PRT7CH8  programs part 7 to receive on MIDI channel 8.

   4. Three Reverb & two Rhythm files, shift between 3 types of internal
      reverb (room is default), turn Rhythm off or move it to MIDI Ch 16.

   5. GM_MT32Doc, This file.

   6. DEMO.MID, a standard MIDI file (format 1) of original music using
      some of the new presets. Watch your overall volume, parts of this
      sequence are loud.

      Using one of the above programs transmit MT32GM1.0 to your synth,
      that's it! Your MT32 is now approx 90% compatible with the MMA
      General MIDI standard. The small PART/PRT files will make the synth
      even more compatible by making all 16 MIDI channels available.

      It would have been nice to be able to program all 128 sounds, as it
      stands half of the 128 standard ROM timbres are combined with 64 
      user timbres to form a compromise bank. The General MIDI path map 
      is included in this upload, (GMText) I suggest printing it out.
