also, that ability to map more 4-op voices comes from it having twice as many operators to work with

72 as opposed to 36

long post, sound card stuff 

ESFM has a couple of advantages over a real OPL3

Primarily in being able to map more than six 4-op voices, which allows for some more complex sounding music.

However this only applies to the native mode of the chip, which is only ever taken advantage of by midi playback in Windows.

still love how i can switch between sound cards for midi playback

shark gets buzzed in at least two ways tonight~

horny, alcohol ment. 

idk what the fuck it is, but having any alcoholic drink (even just my usual cider) leads to horny shark

like i always get hard after a lil bit

and my dick typically takes a long while to get hard now but not when i've been drinking @~@

long post, old comp stuff 

-The ISA card's slower clock compared to the PCI card is obvious when messing around in adplay (playing .adl files and having garbage audio play)
-Windows may stop playing sound effects on both cards at complete random, but appears to fix itself after a bit.

long post, old comp stuff 

So, i've got both sound cards in my old comp.

I've noticed some really weird things as a result of having two sound cards in the same system:

-One of the cards hogs port 388, so games that use this for opl2/3 music (for Adlib compatibility) will always use the one card.
-One card has muffled playback of .wav files through Windows Media Player only, while the other has muffled digital audio playback in games.
-Both cards have a game port (they conflict with each other)

y'know, i gotta give ESS props for making decent sounding instruments for their ESFM cards
