# Yamaha YM2413/OPLL
|
||
|
||
the YM2413, otherwise known as OPLL, is a cost-reduced FM synthesis sound chip, based on the Yamaha YM3812 (OPL2). thought OPL was downgraded enough? :p
|
||
|
||
OPLL spawned also a few derivative chips, the best known of these is:
|
||
- the myth. the legend. THE VRC7. 6 channels, *rather interesting* instruments sound bank, no drums mode
|
||
- Yamaha YM2423, same chip as YM2413, just a different patch set
|
||
- Yamaha YMF281, ditto
|
||
|
