  • OPM Patches out of Most (?) Genesis Games

    I just converted pretty much every Sega Genesis (Mega Drive for those of you across the pond from me) game ever into .opm files which can be loaded with “Sam’s” fantastic VOPM freeware FM synth. I basically d/l’d all the files from project2612.org and ran Shiru’s vgm2opm tool on an entire huge folder of all the games. Only a few didn’t make it, but for the most part, they’re intact. There are literally thousands of useful FM sounds here from the glory days of 16-bit gaming.

  • VOPM Unoffical Manual appeared

    From Gorenfeld’s page

    VOPM Universal Binary
    Sam’s great FM synthesizer plug-in VOPM is now available in a Universal Binary form. The plug-in emulates an OPM– the sound system found in the Sharp X68K home computer and similar to the one found in the Sega Genesis (Megadrive). Many thanks to Sam for allowing me to post the OS X port. I have also written an unofficial English manual for VOPM.
