Author:	ConSiGno
Description:	This is a GENMIDI patch for DMX for OPL3 FM synthesis. This patch aims to remedy the "weak" default instruments to better match the Roland Sound Canvas, most notably the SC-55 and SC-88. Recommended minimum setup for no note-cuts is ZDoom 2.8.1 with DOSBOX OPL3 emulator core, with 6 chips emulated. See the README for additional details.

Extra Thanks to Doomworld Forums and the IRC/DISCORD channels, Giest118, Nuke.YKT, kode54, Patch93, GYRIDION, MovieMovies, Gali, Infurnus, Papiezak, and OlPainless. YMF262 forever.
Base:	Stock DMX GENMIDI
Build time:	About 5 years
Editor(s) used:	Hex Editors, OPL3 Bank Editor, Fraggle's Python scripts, Adlib Tracker II, Edlib, ADLMidi
Bugs:	Due to the number of pseudo 4-op voices, certain notes may cut sooner than they would have using the stock patches. Most of Doom and Doom 2 play just fine. Depending on your CPU, there may be skips in the sound due to buffer underrun, as this patch takes more channels than the stock GENMIDI.
