I thought this was an absolutely fascinating look into reverse engineering hardware. If you’re a musician, check out the plugins at https://dsp56300.wordpress.com/ - you can bit perfect emulate famous 90s synths including Access Virus, Waldorf MicroQ and XT, Nord Lead and now Roland JP8000


DSP56k emulation has come a long way - not only in this great project, there are also working DSP56001 emulations in the Hatari Atari Falcon and Previous NeXT emulators now.
