For all those that have bought job lots of old soundcards, i'm wondering if anyone has ever come across any cards that have the YM3526 or YM3812 chip on them?

I need a few for a project i'm working on to clone the SFX expander cartridge for the C64. I can source a few NOS 3526's but not the accompanying A/D chip (YM3014 or equivalent apparently). Any ideas??

The YM3812 was on the Adlib and original Sound Blaster.  The first version of the Sound Blaster Pro had 2 (for stereo), so from that list above, you'd want:

CT1320  Sound Blaster 1.0 / 1.5

CT1350  Sound Blaster 2.0

CT1330  Sound Blaster Pro 1

Any 8-bit ISA (with only the larger one of the two "goldfinger" connectors) Sound Blaster clone card should have them.  We did have an Aztech BX-(something) that had them.

YMF262-M and YAC512-M are on Aztech ISA card. FCC ID: 138-MMSN830

Hmmm, that's the same FCC ID as my Aztech card and it doesn't have a YMF-262 on it, at least that i can find.  Could you post a photo of the card?

Here's my sound card for comparison:

Unlike AndAway's, it doesn't have a YMF262, though it does have a YAC512 (bottom right, chip to the left of the AZTECH one).
