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. Channel logs: https://libera.irclog.whitequark.org/~h~yamahasynths
<andlabs> insert the necessary catgirl joke here
<NiGHTS> Pietro Gagliardi sur Twitter : "From: ebay Subject: 😞 EXTREMELY RARE COMPUTER THING is gone, but here's more! Body: [a list of completely unrelated items that just happen to run on the same computer or were made by the same company, and then just stuff for entirely different computers]"
<andlabs> "algorithms are always right"
<tpw_rules> hey, it sounds better than "here's stuff to go with that thing you just bought: [that same thing, again]"
<andlabs> lol
<NiGHTS> Pietro Gagliardi sur Twitter : "btw there are cheaper alternative products that were made by other companies that it could have suggested instead; though in my case I wouldn't have been interested in those (I have those), it would have at least been in the infield"

<FUZxxl> Can anybody recommend me some music for the SB1 that really shows the power of the OPL2 chip?
<qu1j0t3> Axel F
<FUZxxl> qu1j0t3: is there a specific version that makes heavy use of FM synthesis?
<qu1j0t3> :) i was being unserious ):
<FUZxxl> I was not sure if you were being serious
* qu1j0t3 is a bad person
<FUZxxl> Most of what I found is either just using PCM or pretty lame (i.e. just conversions from MIDI)
<fseidel> FUZxxl: it's not for the SB1, but the arcade game Out Zone has _great_ OPL2 music
<NiGHTS> OUT ZONE Sound Track - YouTube
<fseidel> (the first track in that upload is an arrangement, everything after that is the original BGM)
<FUZxxl> fseidel: ah sucks, I want to specifically test an SB1
<FUZxxl> specifically, a Snark Barker
<fseidel> you could play the VGM rip with https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=47059
<NiGHTS> SBVGM (DOS) VGM Player \ VOGONS
<KitsuWhooa> Vgmplay also works on windows/linux :p
<fseidel> when I hear soundblaster, my mind jumps to DOS
<NiGHTS> Ys II Special vgm music • VGMRips
<ValleyBell> https://vgmrips.net/packs/pack/megarace-pc is also pretty decent
<NiGHTS> MegaRace vgm music • VGMRips
<FUZxxl> ValleyBell: will try, thanks
<andlabs> what ysnths did axel f use anyway
<andlabs> "Faltermeyer recorded the song using five instruments: a Roland Jupiter-8 provided the distinctive "supersaw" lead, a Moog modular synthesizer 15 provided the bass, a Roland JX-3P provided chord stab brasses, a Yamaha DX7 was used for the marimba sound, and a LinnDrum was used for drum programming. "
<andlabs> I have variants of two of them?????
<andlabs> (a Boutique JX-03 instead of a JX-3P and a TX7 instead of a DX7)
