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.

Silly q... does anyone use this channel through the matrix bridge?
<linkmauve>
I use it through a XMPP bridge, dunno if that counts.
<linkmauve>
A, because there is no SPOF here like matrix.org is.
<cr1901_modern>
Someone who uses Matrix only wants to connect to this channel through the bridge, but she can't find it on the lists

Ahhh, nevermind. Maybe the room is hidden
<cr1901_modern>
(In fact, I seem to recall it might be)
<andlabs>
no SP/DIF here

Well, that's interesting
<KitsuWhooa>
I found a remarked M27C512 in my parts
<KitsuWhooa>
Apparently it's an SMJ27C512
<KitsuWhooa>
I can't figure out why they would bother to make it look like an ST chip
<KitsuWhooa>
I'll get some acetone for fun
<KitsuWhooa>
Markings came right off :p
<Foone>
that seems a pretty low value chip to remark, yeah
<Foone>
although I've heard that a lot of times it's not really about making a cheap chip look like a more expensive chip, it's about making a pile of random similar chips look like the same chip
<Foone>
because basically no one wants to buy a 50 random 27c512s from 12 companies
<Foone>
but if they remark them all as ST 27C512 then maybe?
<KitsuWhooa>
and when they try to program them they get errors anyway
<KitsuWhooa>
:p
<Foone>
yeah that's the thing. IDs, yo.
<KitsuWhooa>
they might even have a different vpp
<KitsuWhooa>
idk, I wouldn't care if I bought random ass chips but whatever :p
<KitsuWhooa>
I guess since this one wasn't ceramic they just sanded it down
