# PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16
|
|
|
|
a console from NEC that, depending on a region:
|
|
- attempted to enter the fierce battle between Nintendo and Sega, but because its capabilities are a mix of third and fourth generation, it failed to last long (US and Europe), or
|
|
- was Nintendo's most fearsome rival, completely defeating Sega Mega Drive and defending itself against Super Famicom (Japan).
|
|
|
|
it has 6 wavetable channels and the last two ones also double as noise channels.
|
|
furthermore, it has some PCM and LFO!
|
|
|
|
## effects
|
|
|
|
- `10xx`: **change wave.**
|
|
- `11xx`: **toggle noise mode.** only available in the last two channels.
|
|
- `12xx`: **setup LFO.** the following values are accepted:
|
|
- `00`: LFO disabled.
|
|
- `01`: LFO enabled, shift 0.
|
|
- `02`: LFO enabled, shift 4.
|
|
- `03`: LFO enabled, shift 8.
|
|
- when LFO is enabled, channel 2 is muted and its output is passed to channel 1's frequency.
|
|
- `13xx`: **set LFO speed.**
|
|
- `17xx`: **toggle LEGACY sample mode.**
|
|
- **this effect exists only for compatibility reasons! its use is NOT recommended. use Sample type instruments instead.**
|

|
## info
|
|
|
|
this chip uses the [PC Engine](../4-instrument/pce.md) instrument editor.
|
|
|
|
## channel status
|
|
|
|
the following icons are displayed when channel status is enabled in the pattern view:
|
|
|
|
- noise mode (channels 5 and 6 only):
|
|
-  off
|
|
-  on
|
|
|
|
## chip config
|
|
|
|
the following options are available in the Chip Manager window:
|
|
|
|
- **Pseudo-PAL**: run the chip on a PAL clock. such a configuration has (probably) never existed, despite a planned official PAL version of the PC Engine.
|
|
- **Disable anti-click**: waveform switching requires a phase reset, which may cause clicks. Furnace uses a wave-position predicting algorithm to minimize these clicks. enable this option to disable it.
|
|
- **Chip revision**: sets the chip revision. HuC6280A has less pops.
