cr1901 changed the topic of ##yamahasynths to: Channel dedicated to questions and discussion of Yamaha FM Synthesizer internals and corresponding REing. Discussion of synthesis methods similar to the Yamaha line of chips, Sound Blasters + clones, PCM chips like RF5C68, and CD theory of operation are also on-topic.

I'm back :D... that was fun!

qu1j0t3: Re: your question about sourcing AY-3, well... _IIRC_, and I might not, I think natalie did a thread on how to identify fake chips, and she might know. But I'm not 100% confident in my recollection
<qu1j0t3>
i am sure i can identify them after they arrive.
<qu1j0t3>
but i do not want them to get that far. :)
<qu1j0t3>
it may be too much to ask nowadays.
<natalie>
most of my knowledge is yamaha specific
<qu1j0t3>
followup dumb question - has anyone designed an emulator
<natalie>
i know there were issues with people ordering ay-3-8910 and getting remarked ym2149 etc
<cr1901>
The Wiki page alludes to a VHDL impl
<cr1901>
Feed it into GHDL, yosys, and then output CXXRTL and you have a software impl
<cr1901>
No guarantee it'll run in real time though :)
