Update to v102r16 release. byuu says: Changelog: - Emulator::Stream now allows adding low-pass and high-pass filters dynamically - also accepts a pass# count; each pass is a second-order biquad butterworth IIR filter - Emulator::Stream no longer automatically filters out >20KHz frequencies for all streams - FC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter - GB: removed simple 'magic constant' high-pass filter of unknown cutoff frequency (missed this one in the last WIP) - GB,SGB,GBC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter - MS,GG,MD/PSG: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter - MD: added save state support (but it's completely broken for now; sorry) - MD/YM2612: fixed Voice#3 per-operator pitch support (fixes sound effects in Streets of Rage, etc) - PCE: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter - WS,WSC: added 20Hz high-pass filter; 20KHz low-pass filter So, the point of the low-pass filters is to remove frequencies above human hearing. If we don't do this, then resampling will introduce aliasing that results in sounds that are audible to the human ear. Which basically an annoying buzzing sound. You'll definitely hear the improvement from these in games like Mega Man 2 on the NES. Of course, these already existed before, so this WIP won't sound better than previous WIPs. The high-pass filters are a little more complicated. Their main role is to remove DC bias and help to center the audio stream. I don't understand how they do this at all, but ... that's what everyone who knows what they're talking about says, thus ... so be it. I have set all of the high-pass filters to 20Hz, which is below the limit of human hearing. Now this is where it gets really interesting ... technically, some of these systems actually cut off a lot of range. For instance, the GBA should technically use an 800Hz high-pass filter when output is done through the system's speakers. But of course, if you plug in headphones, you can hear the lower frequencies. Now 800Hz ... you definitely can hear. At that level, nearly all of the bass is stripped out and the audio is very tinny. Just like the real system. But for now, I don't want to emulate the audio being crushed that badly. I'm sticking with 20Hz everywhere since it won't negatively affect audio quality. In fact, you should not be able to hear any difference between this WIP and the previous WIP. But theoretically, DC bias should mostly be removed as a result of these new filters. It may be that we need to raise the values on some cores in the future, but I don't want to do that until we know for certain that we have to. What I can say is that compared to even older WIPs than r15 ... the removal of the simple one-pole low-pass and high-pass filters with the newer three-pass, second-order filters should result in much better attenuation (less distortion of audible frequencies.) Probably not enough to be noticeable in a blind test, though. 2017-03-08 20:20:40 +00:00			`auto Cartridge::serialize(serializer& s) -> void {`
