Playing samples on PSG is not more difficult than MSX-AUDIO, MSX-MUSIC or even turboR PCM! All of them require the programmer to send raw data to the chip at the correct intervals.

@GuyveR800

Yup And here´s also my first question

I´ve just read some docs about the PSG (I told you I never coded on the MSX before ) and just wanted to have some informations confirmed please :

PSG has three channels ...
Port A0, A1 and A2 ... correct ?

A0 is register select
A1 is data write and A2 data read .... correct ?

The PSG got 16 registers (0 to 15 while 14 and 15 are used for Joystick and Cassette) ... correct ?

So if I want to write to the PSG I would do :

OUT (0A0h),x for selecting the register and ...

OUT (0A1h),x for sending data .... correct ???

cheers ..... RetroMan

Yes, yes, yes, yes
Looks to me you are set to go

Good luck!

Since MSX-Music, MSX-audio and PCM (turboR) are fully part of the MSX standard they are 'the real thing' as well.

However, wouldn't it be cool to boot your MSX2, grab a 300MB WAV (or something) on a harddisk and say to your friends: "listen! hardware from the eighties!" mwuahahahaha

I know But the problem is, I don´t have any of it and currently I cannot afford it as well .... so I cannot access it one THE REAL THING (my MSX´s)

Sure, but I don´t have an Sunrise IDE or other HD Cart, so I have to stick to floppies here

Hi,

I made a wave player for opl4 a few years ago and ideed it only supports upto 128KB samples. The program is called wavplay and you can download it from my homepage.
