The Orpheus II - (Yamaha YMF-262 OPL3) playing classic DOS-Games music
Hello Friends,
in this video I’ll showcase the Orpheus II, a brandnew ISA-soundcard made of new-old-stock-parts. (PCB-design, development and build is made by Leo and Edro in 2023).
The card features a genuine Yamaha YMF-262 OPL3 FM-synthesizer IC, a high quality 4-layer PCB as well as a high quality analog audio section with hifi-grade Nichicon-capacitors. The Orpheus II also provides PC-MIDI interface for Intelligent MPU-401 support and a wavetable-header. The card is fully compatible to Adlib (OPL2), Soundblaster Pro (OPL3), Windows Sound System - and in this case - which is worth a seperate video - Gravis Ultrasound via AMD Interwave IC. (For the Ultrasound functionallity there’s a 72Pin memory slot, best with single-sided modules up to 16 MB). The developers recently also released a LT-version without the interwave-part.
If you want to learn more about the Orpheus II I highly reccomend the Vogons-thread:
And of course the developer’s homepage with all the specs, drivers, FAQs and possibility to place your order:
Special thanks to Leo aka. Keropi who kindly provides the card and answers all my questions.
