Perfekter DOS-Sound mit dem ersten gratis "Sound Canvas"-Emulator für DOSBox, RetroArch & Co?

In this video, I explain how the first virtual "Roland SC-55" emulator works, how to install it, and how to use it under RetroBat, RetroArch, DOSBox Pure, DOSBox Staging, DOSBox-X, and ScummVM with the help of a few tools and the correct configuration. And, of course, what limitations still exist at this early stage of development. And there's a lot of background information: Why is the "Sound Canvas VA" currently offered by Roland not a viable alternative for DOS gamers? Why is the original "Roland SC-55" hardware considered the "Roland MT-32" successor, and why is the Roland GS standard introduced with the SC-55 better than the General MIDI standard released in the same year?
