ABOUT AYPLAY


This software allows you to play AY-3-8912 Spectrum tunes through the SB, output can be up to 44Khz, you can also output the sound to a VOC file. Stereo is only guarantees to go up to 22Khz. It's a bit like SIDPlay (or PlaySID) in operation. This program is for DOS, uses non-portable assembly code (for some parts) and is proud of it!

AYPlay requires a SB 2.0 or above, although a SB 2.0 will not be able to go above 22Khz. A 486 can handle up to 44Khz, maybe a 386? If the PC is too slow, then fuzz and crackle will creep into the tune, try using a lower sampling rate.

The tunes that this can play are those that are used on the Amiga's DeliAY, part of the DELI-Tracker. Also only files of the type ZXAYEMUL and extension .AY will work.
