flake- Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 OPL3 can provide those polyphonic modes: * 18 FM channels (36 operators), or * 15 FM channels (30 ops) and 5 percussion instruments (6 ops), giving us 20 channels altogether, or * up to 6 four-operator FM channels (max 24 ops), the rest again being divided into two-operator FM channels and drums. (I think this is the unique mode on Midibox FM) and this: (* means fm and + means additive) a) FM-FM Mode: (Op1 * Op2 * Op3 * Op4) b) AM-FM Mode: Op1 + (Op2 * Op3 * Op4) c) FM-AM Mode: (Op1 * Op2) + (Op3 * Op4) d) AM-AM Mode: Op1 + (Op2 * Op3) + Op4 so is there a way to set the polyphonic mode? I would like play up to 18 voices with simple 2op configs. thanks opl3 info from experience with sound blaster pro and: http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~john/computer/opledit/tech/opl3.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napalmtree Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Basically, MIOS needs to be rewritten from scratch and the whole user interface will need to be reassigned/redesigned. The source is included with MIOS. Let me know how it turns out! I just went on to working with a SB16 Adlib Tracker 2 and ancient MPU-401, though the Midibox version is still fun to toy with and more portable too.
