ChanServ changed the topic of ##yamahasynths to: Channel dedicated to questions and discussion of Yamaha FM Synthesizer internals and corresponding REing. Discussion of synthesis methods similar to the Yamaha line of chips, Sound Blasters + clones, PCM chips like RF5C68, and CD theory of operation are also on-topic.

pokes KitsuWhooa
<KitsuWhooa>
yeah
<KitsuWhooa>
Lord_Nightmare: what do you mean "fleshing out"?
<Lord_Nightmare>
i mean, the chips are labeled in the driver like "cm-32p-ic18.bin" while the MAME format for rom names is usually 'firstline__secondline__thirdline.type.location'
<Lord_Nightmare>
so it would probably be 'roland_r15159970__mb834000a-20_3b1.ic18' (note i left the ROM type out since mb834000 appears on the label)
<KitsuWhooa>
Oh, you need the third line too, then?
<Lord_Nightmare>
well, silkscreen. it isn't a label
<Lord_Nightmare>
sure
<KitsuWhooa>
silkscreen is under the chips themselves
<Lord_Nightmare>
the printed text on an epoxy or ceramic packaged chip which doesn't have a paper sticker stuck to it is also called a 'silkscreen' as far as i know
<Lord_Nightmare>
its a bit confusing
<KitsuWhooa>
oh
<KitsuWhooa>
TIL :p
<KitsuWhooa>
Actually, do you consider "Roland" the first line?
<KitsuWhooa>
If so, all the information is on that table
<Lord_Nightmare>
if it appears on its own line, then yes
<KitsuWhooa>
Well
<Lord_Nightmare>
do you have an actual picture of the pcb and chips?
<KitsuWhooa>
it's a bit complicated
<KitsuWhooa>
ues
<KitsuWhooa>
yes
<Lord_Nightmare>
that would make it a bit easier
<Lord_Nightmare>
you said that the pcb silkscreen under one of the chips is wrong?
