The Pro Audio Spectrum 16 NuBus's YMF262 FM synthesizer...

Thank you. Will try with 7.5. It's either a 8.1 issue or the board is checking for the PatchPanel presence and doesn't enable outputs when it's not there.

Mapped a few of the analog parts, will double check with a scope.

As for the YMF262 / YAC512 combo, U11B is the output buffer opamp for theses, which some additional circuitry tuned for this application.
As @NJRoadfan suspected its output stage indeed was traced to the mixer chip (MVA508). Outputs pins are 1 and 14 (not sure which is left and right yet)

What's weird is that there is no mixer control for that in MacOS, so you will need to do that somewhat as well in order to use...
There is a few conflicting reports around the web, as the OPL could be controlled from MIDI and some others from software, with the game "Out of this world" supposedly having support for that.

@KennyPowers, @Mr. Ksoft, What MacOS version are you using ? I seem to have trouble having sound out of the codec. MacOS control panel reports a 0kHz ramping rate (Mac OS 8.1) Alert sounds make the menu bar blink as well

7.6.1 here, though iirc I used it on 8.1 a few years ago. The software is definitely quite buggy, when first installed I see it having the sampling rate set to nothing at all (blank menu selection) but then once selected it shows the correct values. I've also had times when the system alerts still come out of the system speaker but everything else from the PAS. But on some installs I've also had everything come out of the PAS. Can't find any rhyme or reason to it. I wonder if it works better on 7.1.

Hey folks, bumping this cause I've been poking at it again and would like to share my findings.

I started looking at this from a different perspective, namely, disassembling the PAS16 extension. I know basically no ASM so kind of stumbling through it while reading up on it, but I figured I still may find some hints that way.

Indeed, I do think I found some stuff. The extension has two blocks of code in the DRVR resource, .PAS16 and .BD_PAS16. Conveniently, .BD_PAS16 actually has a number of modules in it that have human-readable names, which helped lead me in the right direction despite barely being able to read the code. Of particular interest to the ultimate goal here are two named FM_Bd_Status and FM_Bd_Control. FM? That sure sounds like the OPL3...

Of course I can't make sense of it. They're pretty short and I think they depend on code from other parts of the extension. Might revisit this later.

Anyway, more importantly, there's some code labeled ResetHW_SetInitialState, tied closely to two named WrtByte and RdByte. I found this very interesting because I was able to make some connections here.

ResetHW_SetInitialState:

If you look at ResetHW_SetInitialState, there are a number of times where it moves specific numbers like 9A01 or F388 into A7, PUSHes another value, and then jumps to WrtByte. As it turns out, if you look at the PC PAS16 SDK in /PAS/INC/COMMON.H, those numbers are actually the same as the address locations for specific parts of the PAS16 (example, 9A01 is the "Master Address Pointer" and F388 is "I/O Config 1") . This indicates that the addresses are laid out identically.

I don't think these are sitting right at the base card offset, but possibly C0000 which is referenced early on. I did try doing writes using that offset from the base card address and I did actually get a result... namely I get a buzz on the speakers while doing the writes, and then the PAS16 audio dies completely until I reboot. That's more than I got before!

My continually uneducated analysis: I think this extension has a good bit of the glue in it to translate PC-style writes to what NuBus is expecting, with WrtByte and RdByte possibly doing a lot of that heavy lifting. That may explain why doing direct writes to the memory space are not working, and why direct reads are producing all 0's all the time - it may need to read in a specific way that the extension is handling.

So where does this lead? Either I need to replicate what the extension is doing in terms of byte reads/writes, or alternatively I think I need to figure out a way to communicate with the functions already present in the extension. I started looking into the latter, reading into the Toolbox Device Manager, and wrangled a bit of the example code into at least successfully opening a reference to the .BD_PAS16 driver. I got stuck there, though.
Seems there are a couple ways I can communicate with the driver, but of course we don't have a reference to work with. Looks like I can directly read/write a buffer to the driver with PBRead/PBWrite but I have no idea what it would be expecting. I'm thinking PBControl and PBStatus may be more promising as they can "send commands to the driver". Might the named functions I'm finding in the DRVR resource be exposed this way? That would allow external applications like the mixer control panel to alter the card, or those elusive PAS-enabled games to talk to it.
Thing is, good luck determining what to send to the driver... I need a csCode number apparently and those can range from 128 all the way to 32768 if we rule out the Apple reserved ranges. If there's a way to get a list of valid csCode numbers out of a driver, I might be able to get somewhere, but I haven't figured that out yet. Right now, I think my goal is to figure out if I can call ResetHW_SetInitialState using this method, which might help me get the card to output sound again after a bad write without having to reboot

If I can figure that out, then I would have confidence that RdByte and WrtByte may allow me to start doing direct OPL3 writes.

And so the saga continues... I think I have a lot of the puzzle pieces now. Now it's just figuring out how to put those pieces together. I'm probably getting way out of my element, but I'm trying to keep learning and get a better understanding.

Not anything of note to contribute, but will note that my PAS16 did come with a copy of "Out of This World".

It always felt like it was a powerful piece of hardware with no real drivers or software to support it, back in the day.

It will be cool if you unlock its mysteries. 30 years later, it finally gets software support...

Do you know if there was anything special about that copy? Seems like the rumor on the street is that it may have been a PAS specific version.

Can you upload that copy somewhere so I can test it there ?

I will see if I can find it and hope the floppy drive is still working. I haven't tried it in a while. I know it's around here somewhere.... I may have a copy already archived to a hard drive in which case the process will be easier.

trag · Mar 26, 2024

Okay, I had all the disks in my floppy archive. Years ago I copied all my floppies to disk images.

I put them here:

http://sphinxgroup.org/PAS16/

Let me know if the images work. They should just be Disk Copy images. If there's a problem I can binhex them or something.

I also had an archive of the LC version of the PAS16 disks.

The %AA was the trademark emblem. I guess that's how it converts.

Mr. Ksoft · Mar 26, 2024

Thanks, I was able to get these images working.
The copy of Out of this World is, in fact, a specific OEM version! It's marked as version "1.0mv" (presumably mv for Media Vision). Whether that means anything for this project remains to be seen. I messed with it a bit and the sound seems exactly the same as a regular copy of the game. They do seem to have slightly different sound driver resources, but that could just be a version difference as I'm using OotW version 1.0.3. Definitely something to look into further, though.

demik · Mar 29, 2024

How do you use the image file ? I've been trying with DiskCopy but it doesn't like it (because no ressource fork I guess)

Sometimes very late copies of Disk Copy cope better with images that have lost their resource fork.

On the off-chance, try 6.3.3 :

Mr. Ksoft · Mar 30, 2024

I ran the disk images through Fix-a-Fork and then they loaded fine in Disk Copy.

demik · Mar 30, 2024

@Mr. Ksoft thank you that did it. It does indeed sounds like the stock game

what a predictably mis-sold and overstated piece of software. the finder metadata is not in the resource fork.
