Cathode Ray Dude (CRD) on Youtube has good videos and blogs on this topic. The devices you listed are VOIP POTS gateways, NOT phone line simulators. Phone line simulators are old analog devices that have nothing to do with VOIP. I was using the wrong term. Yes basically they receive a call on one …

VoIP networks have their complications, I remember having to set voice codec to G.711 instead of G.729 if I wanted the Modem to get through. fax seems to have a bit of other problems, T.38 doesn't always work. For someone want PSTN/PABX experience, "Excelltel" PABX on Aliexpress is the …

At least for the sound effects, Stunts does define custom sounds on the MT32 during start-up usinig SysEx messages, so any solutiion trying to map MT32 patch numbers to GM/GS patch number and then playing back those GM/GS patches will not work with Stunts. If I remember correctly, music plays fine …

When running on MT-32, you should indeed hear everything sounding via the MT-32, including engine and skid and crash sounds. The only thing I don't remember is whether Stunts programs the MT-32 at start up, or just use the …
