Overview
--------

Contains a low-level OPL2 chipset access API used in old Adlib sound and Soundblaster cards for MS-DOS. The code still compiles with both Turbo and Borland Pascal 7.0 and the C code with Turbo C 2.0.

It also contains sample CMF / SA2 players. The SA2 player was quite impressive at the time. The SCR player is incomplete and is  buggy.

This code is no longer maintained, patches/pull requests are accepted, but no other support will be given.

Licence
-------

See docs/license.txt for the exact licensing terms. 


Building
--------

Simply build the units using Turbo Pascal 7 or Borland Pascal 7.

Credits

* FIRST AND FOREMOST Jeffrey S. Lee for his documentation on the OPL2 Chipset found in the Adlib Sound Card. 
* SBFMDRV Tracing to find out how to calculate the SemiTones and Note modifications.
* The person who gave me the original idea of starting this project: Ezra Dreisbach with his C SCR FM Player.
* All information on the SA2 file format was taken from the SADT2 document which was created by Erik Pojar
* All information on the CMF file format was taken from the PCGPE magazine which was created by Mark Feldman. 
* The PIT Interrupt was also taken from Mark Feldman and his great PCGPE encyclopedia.



Enjoy!
