1. You can get Moonstone from GOG. It is the only shop I know that offers it. https://www.gog.com/en/game/moonstone_a_hard_days_knight
2.a. For midi: Instructions for the Munt installation are here: https://github.com/munt/munt
2.b. You'll need ROMs for you prefered midi device.
3. Open MOON.CFG with a text editor and adjust the text with one of the following.
for midi (female scream):
SOUND=ROLAND
for Soundblaster (male scream)
SOUND=SB
for PC (missing dragon-scream)
SOUND=PC
Be careful not to edit the last line of the file as this might get your game stuck.

If you're looking for an explanation why the sound is so weird... there is a link below. tldr: the sounds are falsely linked to the animations.
