FM channel 8 splits to Snare, Drum, and Hi-Hat. Snare Drum is the carrier and it works with a special 1 bit noise generator combined with a square wave, all possible by overriding phase-generator with some different synthesis method. Hi-Hat is the modulator and it works with the noise generator and also the special synthesis. CH9 splits to Top-Cymbal and Tom-Tom, Top-Cymbal is the carrier and only has the special synthesis, while Tom-Tom is basically a 1op wave. - special synthesis mentioned already is: 5 square waves are gathered from 4×, 64× and 128× the pitch of channel 8 and 16× and 64× the pitch of channel 9 and they go through a process where 2 HH bits OR'd together, then 1 HH and 1 TC bit OR'd, then the two TC bits OR'd together, and those 3 results get XOR'd. - - 1 user-definable patch (this patch can be changed throughout the course of the song) - 15 pre-defined patches which can all be used at the same time - support for ADSR on both the modulator and the carrier @@ -37,7 +35,7 @@ the YM2413 is equipped with the following features: - `y` is the multiplier. - `18xx`: **toggle drums mode.** - `0` disables it and `1` enables it. - - only in drums chip. + - only in drums mode. - `19xx`: **set attack of all operators.** - `1Axx`: **set attack of operator 1.** - `1Bxx`: **set attack of operator 2.** @@ -69,3 +67,8 @@ the YM2413 is equipped with the following features: # info this chip uses the [FM (OPLL)](../4-instrument/fm-opll.md) instrument editor. + +## chip options + +- **Ignore top/hi-hat frequency changes**: in drums mode, makes the top/hi-hat channels not write frequency since they share it with snare and tom +- **Apply fixed frequency to all drums at once**: sets the frequency of all drums to that of a fixed frequency OPLL drums instrument when one note with it is reached diff --git a/doc/README.md b/doc/README.md index 90e6e905b..bc09ca623 100644 --- a/doc/README.md +++ b/doc/README.md @@ -12,6 +12,8 @@ this documentation is a work in progress! expect several sections to be incomple 8.
