DESCRIPTION
Theopl driver provides support for the Yamaha OPL2
(YM3812) and OPL3 (YMF262) chips. The chips are FM synthesizers and are
capable of producing a wide range of sounds.
Access to the device is through the MIDI driver.
The opl driver usually attaches to a sound
card, but it can also sit directly on the ISA bus.
If “flags 1” is specified, the
opl driver handles left and right channels of OPL3
swapped. Use this flag if your device has such problem.

HISTORY
The opl device driver appeared in
NetBSD 1.4.
BUGS
The OPL3 chip is operated in OPL2 mode despite being more capable.
