ST Karate (Atari ST, 1986) gameplay and using Yamaha MU1000 for the midi music

"ST Karate" is an Atari ST game by Pointblank/Eidersoft (published by Paradox) in 1986.
Very difficult controls that annoyed my quite much when trying to complete the "bouncing vases" section (i gave up).

There is no specific synth mentioned to use in the game manual or on gamebox, so just use whatever monotimbral synth with midi input i guess :-)
i used Yamaha MU1000 (wich is actually 64 part multitimbral BTW)

The only thing stating that the game has midi support for the music is a little sign on the back of the box that adverts other games from Paradox... the sign says "All games MIDI compatible super sound" :-)

When i recorded this video so did i connect the output from the Atari ST to the A/D input of the the MU1000 just to get soundeffects mixed with the music better (i added chorus DSP effect also)... in the beginning of the video so do i turn off the YM2149 music in case you wondered why there was such loud sound in the beginning :-)
