Albedo (Atari ST, 1988) gameplay with midi music

Albedo is an Atari ST game by Myriad (in 1988). It has the same sound options as "Sapiens" when choosing midi type, "Casio", "generic 3 part multitimbral synth" and "generic monotimbral synth".

For this recording so did i choose "3 part multitimbral" midi setup having my Yamaha MU1000 hooked up the the Atari ST.
As MU1000 (and most other MU-modules) has A/D input so did i connect the sound output from the ST thru the MU1000... this way i could add reverb/chorus (and other DSP effects) to the sound effects in the game.

Unfortunatly so is there some massive stuttering in the recording (mostly around 7 minutes)... probably caused by some cache clearing on my PC while i recorded this video.

It is an odd game, very original. Also only in french languange so i don't know the exact gameplay idea except for staying alive as long as possible and get highest score :-)
The controls are difficult and very unresponsive, wich is too bad as it really hurt the game.
This video is mostly to show midi support in Atari ST games.
