										 |  |  | # Generic PCM DAC
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | a sample channel, with freely selectable rate, mono/stereo and bit depth settings. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | with it, you can emulate PCM DACs found in Williams arcade boards, Sound Blasters, MSX TurboR, Atari STe, NEC PC-9801-86, among others. |

							|  |  |  | ## chip config
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | the following options are available in the Chip Manager window: | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | - **Output rate**: sets the output sample rate of the DAC. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | - **Output bit depth**: sets the bit depth of the DAC. higher values provide more resolution. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | - **Maximum volume**: sets the max value in the volume column. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | - **Stereo**: when enabled, you may use panning effects. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | - **Interpolation**: "softens" samples played back at lower rates. |
