The first six songs selection match those from the Macintosh game, but the Windows port includes a 7th option for a User MIDI File. While you would think this would let you select your own MIDI song file, it actually just plays a User.mid file. As with old games, it's often difficult to find a pristine copy, so it is not known if the file recorded here came with the game natively, or was added later by the person who created the archive.
The rendition of Minuet In G Major appears to be take from Voyetra's MusiClips library.
Songs starting with a 1 were recorded using General MIDI with the default Microsoft synthesizer, those starting with a 2 using a Sound Blaster 16, those with a 3 using an AdLib.
