Midi Questions

Question One: Where can I find a variety of fantasy sounding midis?

I've looked online for some old fantasy game midis for Heretics of DooM, but am less than satisfied with what I've found. I'm already using what I want from Heretic, Hexen, DooM, and Anvil of Dawn. I have a couple of mp3s from later Might and Magic installments, but can't find a midi version of them at all.

Question Two: In ZDooM, can you adjust the volume of individual midis, or is there a way to change that volume in the midi itself?

I want to make my random music selections more balanced in overall volume. Some midis, such as E1M2 of Heretic, are just too loud.

Thanks in advance for any input!

For #2, you can use the $musicvolume property in your [wiki]SNDINFO[/wiki] lump.
Wiki wrote: * $musicvolume musicname factor

Sets a volume scaling factor for music tracks. This is used to compensate for music that has audibly different volume.
