The Roland SC-55/SCC-1 one would probably be an authentic sounding choice for GM/GS game soundtracks after the early 90s, since a lot of the soundtracks were actually composed with it. Doom (and its sequel), Duke Nukem 3D, Descent, the Warcraft games (though the WC2 composer(s?) used an SC-88 as well) just off the top of my head.
Or Masquerade 55, if you want higher fidelity but with SC-55 replacement in mind.
Space Quest III predates General MIDI altogether. I assume that the original soundtrack was composed for the Roland MT-32 and that the ones you are listening to have been remade into GM by fans, or maybe it was added in a later version. It would be nice if this player contained an MT-32 emulator since so many Sierra (and other) game soundtracks were composed for it specifically. Such a thing already exists: https://github.com/munt/munt

Thoughts on Ultima Underworld (1992)
A little tip: Ultima Underworld has an awesome soundtrack that adds immeasurably to the game’s atmosphere. For the best audio quality, I suggest emulating an MT-32 with a handy little program called MUNT.

I want to start a war. Most overrated Synth model and brand?
In 2022, I'd probably use DOSbox' MUNT MT-32 emulation, but some people would call it blasphemy.

Dwhinham/mt32-pi: A baremetal Roland MT-32 emulator
I was just going to ask how it compares to https://github.com/munt/munt but then I realized it uses Munt under the hood :-)

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
The LV2 audio plugin standard[0], and related stuff like the Atom format[1] used to feed arbitrary data between plugins in realtime.

Linux Distro for audio/audio-programming that “just works” on a T480?
Not all VSTs will work on Linux (just as not all VSTs work on Mac). Many open-source plugins are in the open LV2 format instead.

Dwhinham/mt32-pi: A baremetal Roland MT-32 emulator
This is extremely cool. Many years ago I started and abandoned a similar kind of thing. The plan was to have support for LV2[1] plugins, so you'd get something like a Mod Duo[2] (itself very cool), but like this in that'd boot fast and have super low latency.
