How good is the AY chip emulation on the PC beeper?
We thought that a noticeable improvement from Warajevo 1.5. wasn’t possible, i.e. we thought that our AY chip emulation is the best which can be done with only the PC beeper. Some PC programs like ‘Scream tracker’, ‘Visual player’ etc. have much better sound, but the routines used in such programs seemed (for us) to be impossible to implement into the emulator. However, we got a ‘Commodore 64’ emulator (aarrgh!), which showed us up. It implemented nearly perfect emulation of the SID sound chip (which is even more complex than the AY chip), using only a PC beeper! Starting from release 2.5. we tried to make something similar (switch /SX). Try it and see… Q: I have problems with the ZX Printer emulation with some 24-pin printers and even with some Epson printers. However, printing from a word processor (for example from Tasword) works fine. A: The printer must be Epson FX-80 (or HP Laser Jet) compatible for ZX Printer emulation. Using of Z command in the monitor requires an Epson FX-80
