The General MIDI option is done in native Aria mode. And it is NOT possible
to use Aria in native mode and SB mode simultaneously. Unless someone writes
a new DSP application which performs this feat...

Using the ariainit program Tom Meyers kindly wrote and uploaded to the Aria
Internet Department you don't need soundcfg.sys anymore and should be able
to use the new revision of the Diamond Sonic Sound with Win95. Please post
your experiences with ariainit & Win95 to the list; I'll add some lines
(and credit you :-) to the next revision of the Aria FAQ.
