Understanding the Installation B-5
MIDI Environment Variable
The MIDI environment variable specifies the MIDI file format used
and where MIDI data is sent to. MIDI data can be sent to the internal
stereo music synthesizer or MIDI port.
Generally, there are three MIDI file formats: General MIDI, Extended
MIDI and Basic MIDI. The syntax for this variable is as follows:
MIDI=SYNTH: x MAP: x MODE: x
The parameters in the command are described below.

Understanding the Installation Program in
Windows 3.1x
When you install the audio software, the installation program creates
a directory and copies the software into it. It then allows you to set up
your Windows applications by adding a command to the WIN.INI file
to run WINSETUP.EXE. This command automatically creates the
audio card program group and the application icons when you next run
Windows.
