James | PixelRefresh.com<p>Treated myself to the Yamaha YMF724E-V sound card for my Windows 98 PC and will see if this plays nice with two soundcards.</p><p>For a PCI sound card, it has good DOS compatibility, with an actual OPL3 FM and XG MIDI Level 1 compatibility as a fantastic bonus. I have moved the Yamaha SW1000XG to my Windows XP PC as I was getting annoying interference on the Win98 rig. Maybe driver oddness.</p><p>Looking forward to experimenting...</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opl3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opl3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrogaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrogaming</span></a></p>

Paweł Góralski:atari:nokturnal<p>I&#39;ve improved NokturnFM2/3 carts a little, I&#39;ve added plastic spacers, so they will not hang on rom port (got to drill bigger holes in pcb, due M2,5 spacers) and I&#39;ve changed old linear potentiometer to logarythmic in NokturnFM2, which was good choice, because on old one in the middle of the range i&#39;ve got audio distortions (no surprise). I also experiment with alternative opamps on both cart types. <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/atarist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>atarist</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/nokturnfm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>nokturnfm</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/opl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opl2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/opl3" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opl3</span></a></p>
Paweł Góralski:atari:nokturnal<p>I&#39;ve just ordered parts for small batch of NokturnFM2, NokturnFM3 carts (10pcs each). Ordering parts is exhausting.. Took me like 5h today. Hopefully I had BOM list with links to parts, which halved the amount of work needed to assembly everything. Worst thing is syncing order with existing electronic parts inventory (to not end up with alot of unused parts). <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/atarist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>atarist</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/opl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opl2</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/opl3" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opl3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/nokturnfm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>nokturnfm</span></a> I&#39;ve also decided to give up cartridge case for now.</p>
