Testing out the new 似非P6ROM (Pseudo P6 ROM) Rev. 2a cartridge with the full Eliminate Down soundtrack. It contains the Yamaha YMF276-M (OPN2) sound chip. Unlike it's more well known YM2612 brother, this variant uses an external DAC chip, resulting in potentially cleaner audio. I have chosen Eliminate Down as the first upload, since it is one of the few OPN2 soundtracks that is 100% FM (No PCM or DCSG) so it's a great choice for hearing what this chip can do. (Not to mention the tunes are totally badass!)

Besides the OPN2, this cartridge serves as flash ROM cartridge (4x128kb banks). It's dual-compatible with both MSX and NEC PC-6000 series computers. Lovely device, though currently a bit difficult to get ahold of...
