"If you would like MT-32 support, you can install Munt in windows and use VirtualMIDISynth to switch
to that driver when you want to play an MT-32 game (X-Wing 1993 is) "

How do I do this? I've downloaded the virtual midi synth and munt. Adding the heavenly timbres was easy but not sure with munt.

Edit: I got Munt to work on its own so I guess it doesn't matter.

I'm VERY late doing this but I finally tried X-Wing Floppy with Munt and wow that really sounds quite different, especially as they are using the synth for many of the sound effects

TheInvisibleHand: I found the problem, thanks to PhilsComputerLab's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCNmuDaBNDY

I needed to go into the game's own configuration utility ("Launch Settings" is what the GOG-created shortcut is called) then choose Custom Setup -> Advanced Menu, and then change the Music setting from "4-Op FM" (or whatever the default was) to "General MIDI" port 330.
*speechless* Its been a few years since I last fiddled with the music, I hadn't realised it wasn't using Virtual Synth. Thank you.

I've been using Arachno soundfont for Duke Nukem 3D and I'm liking its sound for X-Wing http://www.arachnosoft.com/main/soundfont.php (download links don't appear to be working right now)
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone involved. I'm using Timbres of Heaven 3.4 and I'm very happy :)
It's funny I was hankering for a retro game and just started a Lands of Lore 1 playthrough, somehow I had never played it back in the day despite loving all the Gold Box games and EOB. I was like, didn't I make some X-Wing thread about a viritual MIDI device? Had to reference my own thread since it's been so long LOL.

I'll roll through here since it's been so long and see if the OP needs any updates. Probalby fine to let it stand. Glad it's helped some folks. \m/
