Once I've found a 28 pin turned pin DIL socket I can straighten out its pins, solder on a few that I broke off |-) and dump the ROM. At the moment I am unsure about the mapping of the ROM, but it's possible the YM2148 MIDI chip overlays part of the ROM as it is memory mapped at the top of bank 0, slot 3. Is the SFG-05 ROM ready yet? Richard -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
Yamaha CX5M
Does anyone know the ports used by the FM sound synthesizer SFG-01 in the Yamaha CX5M computer? There should be two ports for the YM2151 OPM chip and more for the YM2148 MIDI and keyboard interface. I haven't found any documentation on the YM2148 at all, although I have the YM2151 datasheet. Richard -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html

Yamaha CX5M Music Computer Question
A big Hello to the MSX-Community ! (this message was written by Oskar Erdödy on the msx.org forum) I have an old Yamaha CX5M Music Computer with Sound Module SFG-01. I`m searching for possibilities of transfering my YRM-Module-composed files into the PC (for an emulator), and TO PLAY them there (with an emulation of the sound module or a software-connection to some soft-sythesizer). I have a mass of old composings for the Yamaha-YRM-101-Composer, which was step-by-step, and want to recycle them. I didn`t find an YRM-101-Catridge file on the net. Can I transfer the Cartridge to an emulator ? Is there a possibility to connect the SFG-01 with a PC ? Or any other way... Can anybody give a comment or help me ?

yamaha CX5M II 128 MSX music computer
Can someone help this guy ? -- Forwarded message -- Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2000 21:25:37 -0400 From: WARREN SEAN FITZGERALD [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear Mr. Bittencourt: I own a Yamaha CX5M II 128 MSX music computer. The power supply needs to be replaced. I also have another similar machine, an earlier model, with a good power supply and a bad keyboard. I would like to switch power supplies, but I cannot find support for these machines any where in the United States. These computers are very unique--a Music Macro Language and a selfcontained DX=ll sound module/MIDI interface. I don't think Yamaha supports this machine anymore, at least not in the U.S.A.. I would greatly appreciate any help or contacts you could provide. My addres is: Warren FitzGerald, 4314 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19104, U.S.A..
