Richard Bannister, maker of various Mac software including emulators and audio software, recently released a new version of his Audio Overload software. The new version makes a number of changes and improvements, including:

• (Mac) Switched back to Platinum interface.


• (Mac) CPU usage is a bit more realistic now.


• (Mac) Added elapsed time display to the main window.


• Added support for revision 2, 3, 5 and 6 YM files (Atari/CPC/Spectrum).
• For some useless trivia, this feature was written on my PowerBook during part of what became a seven hour delay in Chicago O'Hare international airport.


• R. Belmont added support for MDX files (Sharp X68000).


• R. Belmont added support for Adlib RAW files (Old x86 games).


• R. Belmont added support for MOD files (Amiga tracker format).


• Added support for LZH (needed for YM files).


• Added the ability for tracks to signal when they're completed. GYM, MOD, RAW, VGM, and YM only for now.


• Added channel configuration options for the YM2612 core when used with VGM files.


• Added channel configuration for individual channels on the NES VRCVI chip.


• The SNDH engine now uses the same PSG code as the AY and YM drivers. The old code has been removed.


• Resolved an issue with a small number of zipped files failing to decompress properly.
