36.Os
37.Sh NAME
38.Nm cms
39.Nd Creative Music System device driver
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.Cd "cms0  at isa? port 0x220"
42.Cd "midi* at cms?"
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Nm
46driver provides support for the Creative Music System (C/MS).
47These cards were developed by Creative Labs, the same people who
48designed the SoundBlaster cards.  Chips were available for the
49SoundBlaster to make them compatible with CMS.
50.Pp
51The CMS cards are only capable of playing basic notes and noises,
52making them suitable for playing midi, but not much else.  The output
53is stereo, but the
54.Nm
55driver doesn't support stereo control.  The cards have external volume
56control, line-output and speaker.
57.Pp
58The base I/O port address is usually jumper-selected to 0x220.  Valid
59jumper settings are for 0x210, 0x220, 0x230, 0x240, 0x250 and 0x260.
60There are no interrupt settings.
