Interesting... can programs running on the DOS card/s access a Mac serial MIDI converter?
Not possible. The defacto standard for external MIDI port communication on a DOS machine is a UART located at 300h or 330h that is register compatible with the Roland MPU-401 MIDI interface. Its silly that the joystick port doesn't support MIDI. The Creative Labs VIBRA chip set used for sound on the DOS card has all the necessary functionality built into it.
