Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow & The Flame (1993). A difficult game with gorgeous pixel art and a memorable cinematic intro. A worthy successor to the original Prince of Persia. Captured on a real Intel DX4-100 PC with Roland MT-32 MIDI. No emulation.

👆 Definitely this. Whenever I want to start a new Sam and Max playthrough, I always start with Hit the Road. With MT32 audio it's awesome, but to have a remaster... That would be epic!

Found another Roland MT-32! Late Rev. 0, ROM 1.07 instead of 1.05. Oddly, it has side mounting holes that look factory-made. Possibly for rack mounting? The official kit was different.
Anyone seen this before?

Happy birthday to the Secret of Monkey island music creator! Did he used Roland MT32 for this piece of art?
Happy birthday to Michael Land, whose music is probably playing in your head right now just from reading his name.
I sat down with him a few years ago to talk Monkey Island, iMUSE, and scoring the LucasArts golden era:

@sudden-desu.net Hey, hope you’re well. I was checking out your Wondermega MIDI videos and I was wondering if you had a mo to help. I’d love to see MIDI working on mine. I saw you using a Roland SoundCanvas. Do you think it’d be possible to use the mt32-pi?
