Software

DOSBOX can emulate a CMS card (also known as a GameBlaster) by setting the following in your DOSBOX config file:

[sblaster]
sbtype  = gb
sbbase  = 220
irq     = 7
dma     = 1
hdma    = 5
sbmixer = true
oplmode = cms
oplemu  = default
oplrate = 22050

Download the CMS DOS software below and run CMSDRV.COM and then PLAYER.EXE <song.cms>

No known modern software exists that can play/convert CMS files.
