Update to v102r15 release.

Changelog:
- nall: added DSP::IIR::OnePole (which is a first-order IIR filter)
- FC/APU: removed strong highpass, weak hipass filters (and the
dummied out lowpass filter)
- MS,GG,MD/PSG: removed lowpass filter
- MS,GG,MD/PSG: audio was not being centered properly; removed
centering for now
- MD/YM2612: fixed clipping of accumulator from 18 signed bits to 14
signed bits (-0x2000 to +0x1fff) [Cydrak]
- MD/YM2612: removed lowpass filter
- PCE/PSG: audio was not being centered properly; removed centering
for now
First thing is that I've removed all of the ad-hoc audio filtering.
Emulator::Stream intrinsically provides a three-pass, second-order
biquad IIR butterworth lowpass filter that clips frequencies above 20KHz
with very good attenuation (as good as IIR gets, anyway.)
It doesn't really make sense to have the various cores running
additional lowpass filters. If we want to filter frequencies below
20KHz, then I can adapt Emulator::Audio::createStream() to take a cutoff
frequency value, and we can do it all at once, with much better quality.
Right now, I don't know what frequencies are best to cut off the various
other audio cores, so they're just gone for now.
As for the highpass filters for the Famicom core, well ... you don't get
aliasing from resampling low frequencies. And generally speaking, too
low a frequency will be inaudible anyway. All these were doing was
killing possible bass (if they were too strong.) We can add them again,
but only if someone can convert Ryphecha's ad-hoc magic integers into a
frequency cutoff. In which case, I'll use my biquad IIR filter to do it
even better. On this note, it may prove useful to do this for the MD PSG
as well, to try and head off unnecessary clamping when mixing with the
YM2612.
Finally, there was the audio centering issue that affected the
MS,GG,MD,PCE,SG cores. It was flooring the "silent" audio level, which
was resulting in extremely heavy distortion if you tried listening to
higan and, say, audacious at the same time. Without the botched
centering, this distortion is completely gone now.
However, without any centering, we've halved the potential volume range.
This means the audio slider in higan's audio settings panel will start
clamping twice as quickly. So ultimately, we need to figure out how to
fix the centering. This isn't as simple as just subtracting less. We
will probably have to center every individual audio channel before
summing them to do this properly.
Results:
On the Mega Drive, Altered Beast sounds quite a bit better, a lot less
distortion now. But it's still not perfect, especially sound effects.
Further, Bare Knuckle / Streets of Rage still has really bad sound
effects. It looks like I broke something in Cydrak's code when trying to
adapt it to my style =(

ruby drivers have all been updated (but not tested outside of BSD), and
I redesigned the settings window. The driver functionality all exists on
a new "Drivers" panel, the emulator/hack settings go to a
"Configuration" panel, and the video/audio panels lose driver settings.
As does the settings menu and its synchronize options.
I want to start pushing toward a v107 release. Critically, I will need
DirectSound and ALSA to support dynamic rate control. I'd also like to
eliminate the other system manifest.bml files. I need to update the
cheat code database format, and bundle at least a few quark shaders --
although I still need to default to Direct3D on Windows.
Turbo keys would be nice, if it's not too much effort. Aside from
netplay, it's the last significant feature I'm missing.
I think for v107, higan is going to be a bit rough around the edges
compared to bsnes. And I don't think it's practical to finish the bsnes
localization support.
I'm thinking we probably want another WIP to iron out any critical

Changelog:
- nall/dsp: improve one pole coefficient calculations [Fatbag]
- higan/audio: reworked filters to support selection of either one
pole (first-order) or biquad (second-order) filters
- note: the design is not stable yet; so forks should not put too
much effort into synchronizing with this change yet
- fc: added first-order filters as per NESdev wiki (90hz lowpass +
440hz lowpass + 14khz highpass)
- fc: created separate NTSC-J and NTSC-U regions
- NESdev wiki says the Japanese Famicom uses a separate audio
filtering strategy, but details are fuzzy
- there's also cartridge audio output being disabled on NES units;
and differences with controllers
- this stuff will be supported in the future, just adding the
support for it now
- gba: corrected serious bugs in PSG wave channel emulation [Cydrak]
- note that if there are still bugs here, it's my fault
- md/psg,ym2612: added first-order low-pass 2840hz filter to match
VA3-VA6 Mega Drives
- md/psg: lowered volume relative to the YM2612
- using 0x1400; multiple people agreed it was the closest to the
hardware recordings against a VA6
- ms,md/psg: don't serialize the volume levels array
- md/vdp: Hblank bit acts the same during Vblank as outside of it (it
isn't always set during Vblank)
- md/vdp: return isPAL in bit 0 of control port reads
- tomoko: change command-line option separator from : to |
- [Editor's note: This change was present in the public v103,
but it's in this changelog because it was made after the v103 WIP]
- higan/all: change the 20hz high-pass filters from second-order
three-pass to first-order one-pass
- these filters are meant to remove DC bias, but I honestly can't
hear a difference with or without them
- so there's really no sense wasting CPU power with an extremely
powerful filter here
Things I did not do:
- change icarus install rule
- work on 8-bit Mega Drive SRAM
- work on Famicom or Mega Drive region detection heuristics in icarus
My long-term dream plan is to devise a special user-configurable
filtering system where you can set relative volumes and create your own
list of filters (any number of them in any order at any frequency), that
way people can make the systems sound however they want.
Right now, the sanest place to put this information is inside the
$system.sys/manifest.bml files. But that's not very user friendly, and
upgrading to new versions will lose these changes if you don't copy them
over manually. Of course, cluttering the GUI with a fancy filter editor
is probably supreme overkill for 99% of users, so maybe that's fine.

dummied out lowpass filter)

- MS,GG,MD/PSG: audio was not being centered properly; removed
centering for now
- MD/YM2612: fixed clipping of accumulator from 18 signed bits to 14

First thing is that I've removed all of the ad-hoc audio filtering.
Emulator::Stream intrinsically provides a three-pass, second-order
biquad IIR butterworth lowpass filter that clips frequencies above 20KHz
with very good attenuation (as good as IIR gets, anyway.)
It doesn't really make sense to have the various cores running
additional lowpass filters. If we want to filter frequencies below
20KHz, then I can adapt Emulator::Audio::createStream() to take a cutoff
frequency value, and we can do it all at once, with much better quality.
Right now, I don't know what frequencies are best to cut off the various
other audio cores, so they're just gone for now.
As for the highpass filters for the Famicom core, well ... you don't get
aliasing from resampling low frequencies. And generally speaking, too
low a frequency will be inaudible anyway. All these were doing was
killing possible bass (if they were too strong.) We can add them again,
but only if someone can convert Ryphecha's ad-hoc magic integers into a
frequency cutoff. In which case, I'll use my biquad IIR filter to do it
even better. On this note, it may prove useful to do this for the MD PSG
as well, to try and head off unnecessary clamping when mixing with the
YM2612.
Finally, there was the audio centering issue that affected the
MS,GG,MD,PCE,SG cores. It was flooring the "silent" audio level, which
was resulting in extremely heavy distortion if you tried listening to
higan and, say, audacious at the same time. Without the botched
centering, this distortion is completely gone now.
However, without any centering, we've halved the potential volume range.
This means the audio slider in higan's audio settings panel will start
clamping twice as quickly. So ultimately, we need to figure out how to
fix the centering. This isn't as simple as just subtracting less. We
will probably have to center every individual audio channel before
summing them to do this properly.
Results:
On the Mega Drive, Altered Beast sounds quite a bit better, a lot less
distortion now. But it's still not perfect, especially sound effects.
Further, Bare Knuckle / Streets of Rage still has really bad sound
effects. It looks like I broke something in Cydrak's code when trying to
adapt it to my style =(

Update to 20180729 release.

Sigh ...
asio.hpp needs #include <nall/windows/registry.hpp>
[Since the last WIP, byuu also posted the following message. -Ed.]
ruby drivers have all been updated (but not tested outside of BSD), and
I redesigned the settings window. The driver functionality all exists on
a new "Drivers" panel, the emulator/hack settings go to a
"Configuration" panel, and the video/audio panels lose driver settings.
As does the settings menu and its synchronize options.
I want to start pushing toward a v107 release. Critically, I will need
DirectSound and ALSA to support dynamic rate control. I'd also like to
eliminate the other system manifest.bml files. I need to update the
cheat code database format, and bundle at least a few quark shaders --
although I still need to default to Direct3D on Windows.
Turbo keys would be nice, if it's not too much effort. Aside from
netplay, it's the last significant feature I'm missing.
I think for v107, higan is going to be a bit rough around the edges
compared to bsnes. And I don't think it's practical to finish the bsnes
localization support.
I'm thinking we probably want another WIP to iron out any critical
issues, but this time there should be a feature freeze with the next
WIP.

Update to v103r01 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- nall/dsp: improve one pole coefficient calculations [Fatbag]
- higan/audio: reworked filters to support selection of either one
pole (first-order) or biquad (second-order) filters
- note: the design is not stable yet; so forks should not put too
much effort into synchronizing with this change yet
- fc: added first-order filters as per NESdev wiki (90hz lowpass +
440hz lowpass + 14khz highpass)
- fc: created separate NTSC-J and NTSC-U regions
- NESdev wiki says the Japanese Famicom uses a separate audio
filtering strategy, but details are fuzzy
- there's also cartridge audio output being disabled on NES units;
and differences with controllers
- this stuff will be supported in the future, just adding the
support for it now
- gba: corrected serious bugs in PSG wave channel emulation [Cydrak]
- note that if there are still bugs here, it's my fault
- md/psg,ym2612: added first-order low-pass 2840hz filter to match
VA3-VA6 Mega Drives
- md/psg: lowered volume relative to the YM2612
- using 0x1400; multiple people agreed it was the closest to the
hardware recordings against a VA6
- ms,md/psg: don't serialize the volume levels array
- md/vdp: Hblank bit acts the same during Vblank as outside of it (it
isn't always set during Vblank)
- md/vdp: return isPAL in bit 0 of control port reads
- tomoko: change command-line option separator from : to |
- [Editor's note: This change was present in the public v103,
but it's in this changelog because it was made after the v103 WIP]
- higan/all: change the 20hz high-pass filters from second-order
three-pass to first-order one-pass
- these filters are meant to remove DC bias, but I honestly can't
hear a difference with or without them
- so there's really no sense wasting CPU power with an extremely
powerful filter here
Things I did not do:
- change icarus install rule
- work on 8-bit Mega Drive SRAM
- work on Famicom or Mega Drive region detection heuristics in icarus
My long-term dream plan is to devise a special user-configurable
filtering system where you can set relative volumes and create your own
list of filters (any number of them in any order at any frequency), that
way people can make the systems sound however they want.
Right now, the sanest place to put this information is inside the
$system.sys/manifest.bml files. But that's not very user friendly, and
upgrading to new versions will lose these changes if you don't copy them
over manually. Of course, cluttering the GUI with a fancy filter editor
is probably supreme overkill for 99% of users, so maybe that's fine.
