OPL2/3 Music on a NEW Yamaha FM Chip (YMF825)

Yamaha still make one FM chip, the YMF825 (a.k.a. SD-1), which has some striking similarities to the OPL3 used in many PC soundcards in the 90s. I wondered if the SD-1 might be able to play OPL music, and if so, what it would sound like.

I built a USB interface and OPL to SD-1 translator, and tested it with various PC game and tracker music - here are the results.

Schematics and firmware for a device similar to the one used in this video are available here: https://github.com/danielrfry/opl2sd1
