Ultima Ultima V MIDI Music Configuration

[LarryTyphoid]

I've been playing Ultima V for the first time and used a patch to add back the music to the DOS version. I did the same thing for Ultima IV, but there I found the default soundfont grating and so used this NES style 8-bit soundfont to make it sound more like the original Apple II version: https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts/23

I tried the same thing for Ultima V but the music just sounds grating, and I can't find any soundfont that's fitting. The YouTube uploads of the Apple II and Commodore 64 versions sound pretty good:

Anyone know any soundfonts that can make it sound like this, or just your preferred soundfonts for Ultima V? I found a Commodore 64 soundfont bank here: https://drunk3nj3sus.blogspot.com/2015/04/c64-waveform-soundfonts.html but I can't get it to work with VirtualMIDISynth.

UPDATE: I got a decent sound with the Roland MT-32 emulation version of DosBox Daum included with Pix's Ultima Patcher, though very different from the original Apple II music of course. Only happened to discover this after already beating the game, unfortunately, but I'd try it if anyone happens to read this before playing U5.

Song by Metallica
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me
Back in the womb, it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Finished in just two weeks? I thought it was longer. Btw I'd play the C128 version which has music, or this hacked cartridge version for no load times.
