Whatever project you come up with, you might want to look into the 'Atari Punk Console" it's a easy build and demos Square waves and FM. You could also use a PC and soundcard 'O Scope' software to visualize the waveform outputs.

Re: Adlib Tracker II: ROLL CALL (39 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
Cool. There are some reports @ Subzero's AdlibTracker2 message board about the use of YMF724s but short on details.
There is also Chocolate Doom, a port of Doom for modern PCs with the goal of recreating the original DOS game play. The nice thing is that it supports OPL hardware. The developer uses a YMF724, but I don't know if the project is based on DOSbox or is a re-write/wrapper of the original Doom code.
For anyone interested I've updated the thread I started about FreqMon801 with my install notes, might be helpful.

Re: Adlib Tracker II: ROLL CALL (39 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
DOSbox Mega Build 6, patched for more low level pass thru; Parallel, network and OPL sound. Reported to work with ISA OPL cards, but finding an XP class mobo that has ISA connectors AND can run fast enough for DOSbox is another challenge. I have yet to test the legacy OPL support/Port Talk.sys/DOSbox combo on my rig so there may still be issues with a PCI card.
The YMF724's legacy OPL core is exposed as a SB PRO2, but on the PCI bus, which does not support IRQs. The hardware option is using a mobo with a SBlink connector, to link the IRQs to the PCI card, but again these mobos are a rarity.
Yamaha's software solution for native DOS/OPL support with these chips, uses a TSR to redirect IRQs over the PCI bus, which was hit n miss depending on the user program's mem usage. The W98 WDM drivers handle the redirects, but support with NT based drivers was dropped as a default. With PowerYMF to enable the chip's OPL core and a kernel mode access driver I.E Giveio.sys or PortTalk.sys, the OPL core can used.
Hope I'm not hijacking this thread, but wanted to throw out what I've learned so far.

Re: Adlib Tracker II: ROLL CALL (39 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
I'm just getting started with AT2 and got a couple general questions
I just got an old box with on board YMF719 sound setup. It's running W98SE and seems to run AT2 fine from a dos prompt. So Yea! but it got me thinking; I've read threads of folks running W98 and using DOSbox for AT2. Why? Is this for the OPL emu?
I also have been messing around with a YMF724 PCI card on a newer Dell 2400. I've been encouraged after setting up FreqMonster801 under XP; so even though the OPL core is not exposed by default with the NT drivers, it can be enabled and accessed. Has anyone used the 'OPL pass thru' patched DOSbox with XP?
ATM these cards are cheap on EBay and seem to work easily under W98, but it would be tits up to have a XP REAL OPL option:)
The cherry on top would be native support of the YMF724 in the AT2 SDL build, I can dream can't I?

Yea, very dif styles, Both Good. Kind of blows me away that Klystrack can be so expressive in the slower tempo/ambient/synth-ish style. I mistakenly only thought of it as a 'chip' tracker, but in your hands well...guess that the difference 
Hope you get the snares wholesale

Re: modify a gameboy cart to use a li-po instead of battery (49 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
@ chowdit1: Short answer: back up your data, batteries fail. If your saves are important to you, have a copy on another media, whether it's flash or a floppy.
I'm not a GB user but the issue of saves is common to almost all embedded systems. I'm sure others can answer to the specifics of the GB,with ways to transfer saves from it. I know somewhere in one of these replies someone mentioned how they transferred their saves.
