Donkey Kong on MAME - sound quality not accurate
Malenko:
it sounds fine to me :dunno
as for older MAMEs using samples...... set up your front end to use an older version of MAME for that game?
nordemoniac:
I know this is a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure it's still an issue.
Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong sounds awful, and it's too bad - They're the classics I remember! They sound really muffled and noisy. Not the clear sounds from real cabinets.
Is there any way to inject wav-files into the ROM or something else that might fix the audio?
If it's perfect emulation mame is after, this should be one of their concerns right?

Set up your front end to use one of the older Mame versions that use samples for those titles. I have several mame versions on my cabinet and about a dozen on my desktop for reasons just like that.
Mario Bros and Donkey Kong both have an amplifier on the monitor. I don't know if that is emulated or if it is even doing anything that should be emulated (it is a pretty simple amp).
nordemoniac:
Is it possible to have multiple MAME versions, so that I can have an older version for these games only? (Sorry, new to this).
ppv:
Paige, what version of Mame are you using for those two games?
