This is a short video tutorial showing how to get MoonBlaster Wave for MoonSound (MBWAVE) working in the BlueMSX emulator, based on the question of saibot216 at: http://www.msx.org/forum/msx-talk/emulation/attempting-run-moonblaster?page=2

MoonBlaster for MoonSound Wave (MBWave) is available from Marcel Delorme's website: http://members.chello.nl/m.delorme/mbwave.htm
The required MSX-DOS files (msxdos.sys and command.com) are available for instance from Marq/L!T's page in an LHA archive (msxdos.lha): http://www.kameli.net/lt/devel.html

1. First extract the MBWAV116.LZH archive somewhere. This contains all the MBWave program files.

2. Next extract the msxdos.sys and command.com files from msxdos.lha into this same MBWave directory. You need these files to get an MSX-DOS environment.

3. Then start BlueMSX and open the MBWave directory (the one where you extracted all the files) as a Folder/Directory in the virtual diskstation A:

4. Finally, boot your MSX configuration in BlueMSX (ensure it's MSX2 or higher and that it has a MoonSound extension emulated) and go create some tunes.

Note, not all archive utilities might support LHA. I'm using 7zip for Windows for this.
BlueMSX is available from: http://www.bluemsx.com
