Stefan.J.LindbergThis is the latest hardware i bought for my Atari ST... it's "NokturnFM3" a FM synth cartridge with a OPL3 soundchip 馃檪

Judeau (EatTheRich)@stefanjl I was unaware they had anything like this. There is a lot of potential here if the community really decides to adopt it.
I could imagine some cool audio enhancement patches for older games or it being used in newer homebrew games.

nokturnal1/2 @Judeau @stefanjl Because it is quite fresh. Well, adoption is quite poor to be honest in comparison to let's say c64 or Atari 8-bit (I don't have any influence on people), but I've open sourced library (C99, https://framagit.org/nokturnal/nfm), I've made docs about usage, which eases adding opl support along with player (it needs some more work as always). #atarist #opl3 #opl2
@Judeau @stefanjl 2/2 It's not tied to NokturnFM cartridges (there's OPL2 variant too), supports other oses / OPL devices(https://bus-error.nokturnal.pl/Using%2BOPL%2Bsoundchips%2Bon%2BATARI%2BST), has simple player #atarist #opl3 #opl2 PR for ScummVM (right now there are only my custom builds, need to make proper Linux library distribution first) is on the way too and possibly in Hatari emulator via natfeats (, so you can use opl3 express for instance or something other if I finish proper drivers). Can't do much more...
@nokturnal That sounds quite exciting. I'm going to give you a follow so I don't miss anything else about this.
