The SETUP.EXE utility installs also a resource configuration utility under MS-Win3.1x for reconfiguration of the I/O base addresses, IRQs and DMAs of the various devices on the AD1815/AD1816. This RESOURCE CONFIGURATION utility is installed with a program group called AD1815/AD1816 SOUNDPORT. You can use this utility to setup the 
resources for the:

1. Windows Sound System Codec
2. SoundBlaster codec
3. MPU-401 driver
4. Gameport/Joystick driver
5. OPL3 (FM) synthesizer

These resources can also be setup through the Willow Pond driver SETUP utility from the CONTROL PANEL|DRIVER configuration panel. The Willow Pond driver SETUP utility.

7. R e s o u r c e   C o n f i g u r a t i o n   U n d e r   D O S

Included with this release is a simple, but functional DOS resource configuration manager, called DOSCFG.EXE, for the sound codec, the gameport/joystick, the FM synthesizer and the midi port. DOSCFG.EXE is installed by SETUP.EXE in the directory C:\ADISOUND (the default installation directory if you did not change it at installation).
DOSCFG.EXE is the equivalent of the MS-Win3.1x RESOURCE CONFIGURATION utility. DOSCFG.EXE gives the user the ability to setup the AD1815 entirely from the DOS command line.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. V o l u m e    C o n t r o l   U n d e r   D O S

Included with this release is a simple, but functional DOS mixer, called MIXER.BAT. During installation of the device driver, the SETUP.EXE program copies MIXER.BAT into the directory C:\ADISOUND (the default installation directory if you did not change it at installation). 

The mixer is used to control playback volumes for application with DOS games. You should use MIXER.BAT to set the playback volume to a desired level before starting a DOS game. The following volume controls are provided:

1. Master volume control
2. LineOut volume control
3. FM (OPL3) volume control
4. CD-Audio (Aux1) volume control
5. Wavetable (Aux2) volume control
6. Line-in volume control
7. Mic-In volume control

1. At the DOS command line, type:

	C:\ADISOUND\MIXER.BAT

2. Follow the menu options to set desired volume levels.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. P l a y i n g   D O S   g a m e s

Important:

Playing DOS games in an MS-Win3.1x DOS box can sometimes be problematic. To get around this, follow the instructions below:

1. Exit from MS-Win3.1x

3. Invoke MIXER.BAT to set volume levels appropriately

4. Run the DOS game.

Note: In case you encounter problems setting the music card in a DOS game to GENERAL MIDI, try turning on the Aux2 channel (Wavetable channel) via the Willow Pond MediaRack under MS-Win3.1x. Exit from MS-Win3.1 and run the game in DOS.
