Plogue's OPMZ Emulates Four Yamaha FM Chips, Including the One in This Morning's Hardware
Plogue's Chipsynth OPMZ models four classic 4-operator Yamaha FM chips: OPM (YM2151), OPP (YM2164), OPZ (YM2414) and the OPZ2 from the V50. One of those is the exact chip in Amiteque's new hardware FM-01 — which makes the pair an unusually clean test of the emulation-versus-silicon argument.
