David Viens explains the extensive hardware reverse engineering and digital capture process used to accurately emulate the SNES audio chip.

Get chipsynth SFC here plogue.com/products/chipsynth-sfc.html Custom electronic test rigs were built and designed by me. Actual testing and reverse engineering was done me and Hubert Lamontagne and myself at Plogue over a period of years. Teardown of console variations Digital Capture Renders are all different MDFourier SPC (beta) 16kHz on a 32kHz ZoH DAC stairsteps Analysis of the reconstruction filter Ceramic Resonator and Heat issues Corrections -SHVC-SOUND were not the most manufactured version of the SNES. Just happens to be the most common version I locally find In Canada (that's not really a good sample) -there are no "'GMP" revisions but in fact "GPM" . Dyslexia at work.
