Okay, so I downloaded this custom Duke3D level that uses a custom music track. Problem is, every time I try to play that, it plays DETHTOLL.MID instead. Is there any way to make it play the custom track?

There's a few different things you can do.
1) Easiest way, just rename the custom music to DETHTOLL.MID.
2) In USER.CON, there's a list of all the songs played for each level, each episode. You'll notice the last one for episode one is DETHTOLL.MID. Change it to whatever the name of the custom song is.

Duke3D Usermaps and Music
Well, I ended up doing both: I edited the USER.CON so that it pointed to a MIDI I found in a map pack. Then renamed that MIDI file accordingly, and it works out fine. Yeah, the one map I had won't sound right with that music, but it shouldn't detract you anyway.
