Can the same quality as the IIGS be had? (Besides the speaker)

Haven't done much work yet with the IIGS's Ensoniq DOC chip (same as in Ensoniq Mirage and ESQ1/m) - though I have all these devices -  The fact that the DOC uses 8bit PCM wavetables at varispeed using a 24 bit accumulator (aliasing fun) makes me feel this would be more suited for a chipsounds addition than an chipcrusher addition.

However, it might be interesting to investigate at which samplerate most game FX/dialogs were played at and that would give a relative close value.  As with the SID (the DOC's father), there surely is a magic SR setting where each sample is played without one been repeated or skipped.

You could set Resample at something between 8000 and 11025 and 8bits, then through the RC filter - need to calculate the value from schematics - or make an impulse), then through the IIGS speaker.

So in short I would need more time to investigate to make a 'valid' preset to emulate it.

Edit, from the IIGS schematics I found, emulating the analog output of the chip would be best with a full IR (as i did with all the Amiga filters)  and not just a simple (one pole) RC filter.

Awesome.  Using that would make me so happy!  I love reading you pontificate on one of my all time favorite chips!

Bought this yesterday. Not gone too deep with it yet, but at first glance I can see myself using this a LOT. Loads of options and can be pleasingly subtle - most crushers I've used go WAY over the top in obliterating everything, whereas this is much more musical. Excellent stuff.
