... This relieves the rest of the computer from knowing how to use the drive, since the controllers for different types of disks can be made to use the same interface towards the rest of the computer. ... Usually the number of sectors is the same for all tracks, but some hard disks put more sectors in outer tracks (all sectors are of the same physical size, so more of them fit in the longer outer tracks). ... For example, a hard disk might have 8 heads, 2048 tracks, and 35 sectors per track . ...

MAKEGM.ZIP This utility modifies a MIDI file, as much as possible, to conform to the GM/GS standard. It inserts all of the required controllers and other MIDI messages to ensure that the sound card is properly initialized at the start of the file's playback. Have you ever played a MIDI file that sounded different each time you played it, depending upon what state some other playback has left your sound card in? Or a file that didn't properly setup its intended instrumentation? ...
