I finally upgraded the SnarkBarker with two SAA1099 ICs to full GameBlaster compatibility. We have a listen on how this compares to the Adlib portion of the card in Space Quest 3. Also while we're at it we will compare to PC speaker and Tandy sound, which would have been how most of the people would have experienced Space Quest back in the day. As a bonus we'll also have a listen to the MT-32 version, which would have been quite rare to have owned back then, due to its price.
