Wow, that's an expensive HB75

Probably it comes with this unreleased Billiard game from Konami. No reason for such price if it don't

Its comming back to me now.

pcm recording?

Like the philips music module, recording voice etc.?

(put then voor the fm-pac i asume)

nope, pcm recording of the Turbo R is internally. It's a dedicated chipset, and you can even use an external mic! By default, you can sample at 4 frequencies, 15.75kHz (good quality, but also memory consuming), 11.8125kHz, 7.875kHz and 3.9375kHz (poorest, but it doesn't take that much memory). You can sample to VRAM, that's the great thing about it. Screen0 uses 2 VRAM pages, so that makes there are 6 pages left, that is 96kB. You'll blast it full in 6 seconds when you sample at 15.75kHz, though when you sample at 3.9375kHz, it'll take more than 30 seconds! The quality is 'poor', however...

It's hardly a chipset though... It's a bunch of caps hooked up to the engine... Hell, it doesn't even have an ADC circuit... It does work though, and xelasoft proved it can even be used to play sfx with in games... That was pretty impressive...

Stefan Boer made a program which could record and play samples at 24 different frequencies or so, the worst being 1kHz, the best 21kHz. Look for that on some Sunrise Magazine.
