MIDI I/O Registers
These registers are accessed at I/O port addresses offset from
the MIDI I/O Base address (“Plug and Play” programmable
via LDN 6 Rx61-60). The MIDI port base address register
default value is 0300h so that these registers may normally be
accessed at standard MIDI I/O port addresses 300-301h (but
the base address may be changed via software to relocate
these registers to avoid conflicts with other system I/O
devices).

Game Port I/O Registers
These registers are accessed at I/O port addresses offset from
the Game Port I/O Base address (“Plug and Play”
programmable via LDN 7 Rx61-60). The game port base
address register default value is 0200h so that these registers
may normally be accessed at standard Game Port I/O port
address 201h (but the base address may be changed via
software to relocate these registers to avoid conflicts with
other system I/O devices).
