Its Wave version is unbearably harsh to hear.

It’s not a proper MIDI chat without this.
My life is the authentic stereotypical nerd experience.

Re: post midi music ig
Wow what a blast from the past hearing Onestop.mid again. I used to love that song as a kid, I was absolutely fascinated by the genre switches and how it managed to pull them off.
I think my PC had a Yamaha XGlite on it back then which made MIDIs sound marginally better than the average PC. At least, I remember being disappointed with how MIDIs sounded on other peoples' computers, but that could also just be because I was so used to how they sounded on mine.
I never really looked into why it was written that way before, but it looks like MIDIs were preinstalled primarily so users/technical support could test/troubleshoot MIDI hardware even if the system had no internet connection, and Onestop was particularly useful because it exercised more instruments. Interesting stuff!

Though I do have to wonder how often Microsoft got calls from disgruntled computer users who couldn't play midi files on their computer even in those days...

I mean there is Budget-Builds in the UK who spent like almost an hour in a tech support call to Samsung themselves to setup an over-10-year-old device whose drivers they no longer offer (and yes this "identity" is still alive...somewhat.)kana85hz2c wrote: ↑Mon Jan 30, 2023 1:47 pm I never thought about why it was there, but that is an interesting read lol.

lol I'm genuinely impressed Samsung actually played ball.
Speaking of midi music, the BGM in that video is the base MIDI music from OpenTTD
