a backwards-compatible successor to the AY-3-8910, with increased volume resolution, duty cycle control, three envelopes and highly configurable noise generator.
sadly, this soundchip has only ever observed minimal success, and has remained rather obscure since.
it is known for being used in the Covox Sound Master, which didn't sell well either.
while emulation of this chip is mostly complete, the additional noise setup registers are not emulated (yet). whether it ever has been emulated at some point in a now-abandoned tracker with similar goal as Furnace is unknown.
# effects
-`12xx`: set channel duty cycle. `xx` is a value between 00 and 08.
-`20xx`: set channel mode. `xx` may be one of the following:
-`00`: square
-`01`: noise
-`02`: square and noise
-`03`: envelope
-`04`: envelope and square
-`05`: envelope and noise
-`06`: envelope and square and noise
-`07`: nothing
-`21xx`: set noise frequency. `xx` is a value between 00 and FF.
-`22xy`: set envelope mode.
-`x` sets the envelope shape, which may be one of the following:
-`0: \___` decay
-`4: /___` attack once
-`8: \\\\` saw
-`9: \___` decay
-`A: \/\/` inverse obelisco
-`B: \¯¯¯` decay once
-`C: ////` inverse saw
-`D: /¯¯¯` attack
-`E: /\/\` obelisco
-`F: /___` attack once
- if `y` is 1 then the envelope will affect this channel.
