The OPL is a digital sound synthesis chip developed by Yamaha in the mid 1980s. Among other products, it was used in sound cards for PC, including the Ad Lib card and early Sound Blaster series.
| New version | 3.0 |
| Old version | 2.7.2 |
| Release Notes | PL has been rewritten from the ground up. NEW FM ENGINE The synthesis core is now built on the YMF262 (OPL3), replacing the previous OPL2 emulation. All eight OPL3 waveforms are available on every operator, where before there were four. The synthesis core, register layer, parameter handling, and interface have all been rewritten. SOUND QUALITY Oversampling up to 16x is now applied to the chip itself, cutting the aliasing FM produces at high modulation settings. Pitch, envelope timing, and key scaling stay constant across every oversampling setting. Playback and bounce have separate settings, and offline renders use a linear-phase filter and report their latency, so a bounce matches what you monitored. NEW INTERFACE Redrawn as resolution-independent vector graphics in place of the fixed-size bitmaps, and freely resizable with a zoom menu. Voice activity is now shown live on the envelope displays. NEW PARAMETER Panning: a key-tracking stereo spread that places notes across the field by pitch. ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD The iPad standalone app now has a MIDI keyboard, so OPL no longer needs an external controller to play. It sits below the panel with pitch and modulation wheels and octave buttons at each end. The modulation wheel drives a vibrato LFO with continuous depth, going well beyond the chip's own fixed two-position vibrato. Toggle it from Menu > Show MIDI Keyboard. ON iOS Oversampling settings are now available, with playback and bounce quality each set from 1x to 16x and remembered between sessions. Loading and exporting SBI instruments through the Files app and iCloud Drive has been fixed, and the AUv3 no longer opens at the wrong size in hosts. COMPATIBILITY Existing projects and presets load unchanged, with automation assignments preserved. Adds a new Init Bass factory program. FM synthesis now uses ymfm by Aaron Giles under the BSD 3-Clause License. |
