These sleepless nights are really beginning to contribute to thinking that's so much foggier than my usual foggy self. I guess I've fallen into the sam esort of thinking that people have done with me when I solved some problem that perplexed them, then subsequently they started thinking I'd have answers for their Aunt Flo's bursitis. Found some specs for the EXP sound card (see bottom). Not hugely impressive. Seems the Yamaha YMF262 is another bread of OPL-3. I see that OPL-3 doesn't not completely define the Yamaha sound controller chip does it. "20 voice full stereo" ...may refer to MIDI voices... which, if that's true is pretty poor. I think that's about what the OPL-3 in my 50/70 Libs have. "Half Duplex" - That's impressive ;-P I can't find any links to the OPL-3 chipset specifications, and there's not much more about this EXP sound card... so it's hard to evaluate it's quality.
