Newer Version:
This version of the ym3812 emulator is now released because itworks in several emulators. This emulator was created mainly dueto the crappy usability of the compatible OPL3-SA chip on theSoundBlaster PC card. The OPL chip on the SB is not permitted tobe used under Windows 95/98, and nothing happens when it isaccessed under Windows NT. Not all cards are SoundBlaster either,there are much better and cheaper sound cards in the market today.The emulator was first used in the Shark emulator from The DeadSerious Clan. This page was updated Saturday, June 05, 1999 16:11. The ym3812emulator is used in the emulators
