If you can hold a soldering iron, there are few simple schematics how to connect YM2612 to PC through LPT, i.e. you don't need to design hardware, only build it. Do you know where these are? I've looked around a lot but can't seem to find anything like this. I would probably die from joy if I could...

I should note that a lot of people making SMD music, using either VOPM, TFM MM (+VGM plug-ins, +real hardware, +actual cartridge releases), or some other solutions (MML, MIDI), and no one really complain about authenticy of the sound of emulated solutions, or panning control - it is good enough, so...

Btw, TFM MM actually supports the YM2612 panning, it is just not audible in the editor. You have to export the song as VGM, and then you'll hear the panning using any VGM player/plug-in (there were some with Gens sound core, as far as I remember), or real hardware. Good to know, although it doesn't...

I'm even going to say that TFM has more accurate FM emulation than Gens does. Cannot comment about VOPM but it should be rather good aswell, though not for same family chip. Do you aware that this code is not accurate, probably less accurate than in VOPM etc? VOPM's similarity to the YM2612 is disa...

VST using Gens ym2612 emulation

Hi everybody! I've been to hell and back over the last year trying to find something that accurately emulates the YM2612 for my music, but after trying VOPM, Various other FM Synths, some sound fonts, and even TFM Music Maker I've come to the conclusion that there is simply no good way emulate the Y...
