Re: Cheap Highpass Filter? (just add/subtract and bitshifts)

I remember reading about a really cheap Highpass/DC cancellation filter that used only addition/subtraction and bit shifts. But I can't remember what the formula was, or where I heard about it from. I think emulators used this formula. Does anyone know it? You're welcome. http://forums.nesdev.com/v...

The wiki brings the following info: $8000-BFFF: [M..P PPPP] P = PRG Reg (16k @ $C000) M = Mirroring: %0 = Horz (PPU A11) %1 = Vert (PPU A10) Disch' mapper 97 document brings a bit different: $8000-FFFF: [MM..

Namco 163 output examples

3 recordings from my emulator (WAV format).

Re: Namco 163 audio?

I've found the problem.
I messed up the RAM pointers. :oops:
Now it's playing OK.

The same occurs with Erika to Satoru no Yume Bouken.
Plus, the wiki says (NSF page) that it uses registers $4800 and $F800. What about register $E000:$40? Is it unused?

Re: Namco 163 audio?

Well, after two days of work (and a big thank you for Mesen' source), I could get it working... except for an annoyance I can't figure out. Channel 8 (the first one) outputs a high frequency sound when it should be in silence. Here's a LOG of the channels. I'm using the game Final Lap (J) for testin...

Re: Clock is skipped too late, relative to enabling BG

In my emulator, the extra cycle occurs at PPU cycle 337 (pre-rendered scanline) if it's an odd frame and background is enabled. You increment the PPU cycle counter at PPU cycle 337.

[odd frame] (337 + 1) + 3 (next clock) = 341 (takes 1 CPU cycle).

Re: Namco 163 audio?

One last question. It says... "The output will be held until the next channel update. The 24-bit phase value will be stored back into w[$7D/$7B/$79]" So, at every CPU cycle, each channel returns the last generated output sample. It holds the sample until the next update (+15 cycles). Corre...

Re: Namco 163 audio?

I'm using Disch' mapper 19 doc too. About the frequency/channel clock, Disch didn't mention "at every 15 CPU cycles", but a frequency formula for CPU cycles: $F0000 * (E+1) Cycs = ------------------ F I wonder if each channel is clocked (frequency--) at every 15 CPU cycles ... or not?

Re: Namco 163 audio?

Ok.

2. At every 15 CPU cycles, channel 8 is updated, then channel 7 after +15 cycles, then channel 6... and so on?

Re: mapper 19?

I though about "the last32 banks" out of a total of 64, for example... and how they would be selectable.
Sorry for the language barrier.
Thanks for the help.

I have the same problem with scanline test, but no shaking.
