Flashjacks firmware updated to Ver 1.5

As a distributor from another hardware product i wouln't dare to communicate updates of my product on an international platform, of which people outside my country simply cannot obtain (at least not as a news-bulletin, at most as a topic). Even if it benefits the so called msx (international) developments in general.
An initial announcement of a new product is understandable, but firmware- and/or manualupdates can easily be obtained from other (direct or local) sources.

Robby, I disagree with what you say.
I believe that anyone in the world can be interested in the evolution of the project.
To give an example, I am interested in the Procyon project although I know I will never have it. It gives me ideas, and inspires my creativity.
In addition, the Flashjacks project, although it is not a commercial product, is all over the world. I have not sold to international countries but I know that through third parties, they have arrived. Even in the stands I attend (RU Barcelona, ​​etc ...), I have come to speak with foreign staff and even they have got a Flashjacks.
Finally Flashjacks is considered and has extensive dedicated software such as FDSK, FROM, DI and has even been considered in NEXTOR and game patches such as Nemesis III Enhanced.
I suggest you enter www.retromsx.com and see the scope of this powerful cartridge. The page is in more than six languages ​​and we are on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, etc ... The knowledge of it is open worldwide and MSX.ORG is a way of communicating to that world.
I hope you understand.
Best wishes,

Aquijacks.

MegaFlashROM is indeed a great device but FlashJacks is worth it. Even if you consider that you don't need any OPL sound from FJ and don't use it, there's still a lot of other nice possibilities. Say, automatic save of SRAM area (like Carnivore 2 has but with C2 you have to run a utility after reboot while FJ will save your file when you reboot without any extra actions), as an example. Some other options are great too. So while MFR was greatest one for a while, now it gets another very strong competitor, and if we vote, i'd give my vote to FJ

The flashjacks has a powerful audio chip.
It is not the typical DAC installed in some cards. Flashjacks has an integrated audio processor with active filters, audio frequencies up to 100Khz 21bit stereo.
This chip has the possibility of several simultaneous audio inputs / outputs, which allows by synthesis in the FPGA to create a powerful mixing table of all the synthesized chips and an auxiliary line input. All in stereo and without loss of quality.
Flashjacks accepts the mixing in fully digital auxiliary inputs, such as Moonsound, OPL4 and other devices and integrates it digitally in its audio output.
I know that there are people who use it to remaster MP3 music, CDs and other formats since Flashjacks allows you to extract pure audio with zero noise.
I attach an image of the Bootmenu so you can see the level of configuration of the Flashjacks audio chip.

In youtube of retromsx.com you have variety of videos recorded with the audio of the Flashjacks so that you can have a demonstration of its sound.

Yes... That's a great idea... 5 Jack IN connectors, and 5 Jack OUT connectors. in a cartridge.... Yes....

@Hydragon I'm not sure what MP3 are you talking about. Somebody used FJ cartridge to make some MP3's, it doesn't have anything to do with lossless or not lossless in the cartridge itself (which has pretty good mixer in FPGA according to manual - 96Khz, with samples of 24bits per channel). I would suggest you to read more carefully what people are saying instead of paying that much of effort to throw dungs at other people's production

PS just wonder, do you make fun out of talking crap about things you didn't have in your hands? we don't see fun of it, it looks quite ugly btw, you speak like you invented whole lot of devices and yours are best, but you just use others' inventions for your precious streaming, no?

"No. It's not possible."

Here is your answer.

Your examples sound great! Even more a pity that we cannot obtain it

All fine hydragon, forget it. You have civil rights to use any new hardware in untested setup first time for live streaming and then claim it to be most shitty shit in the world if something is not working, LOL. i wouldn't sell you any hardware if i'm hardware maker, just in case

Sorry for offtopic, i'm not posting any offtopic anymore

The original chips are unique and irreplaceable.
Their virtues and their defects make them unique.
I understand wanting to mix them analogically and with original chips. The sound is the exact one of that time.
The flashjacks improves everything but obviously it moves away from the original chip. In that there is no discursión.
The same goes for the original MSX. Each of them are special. It is not the same as a current MSX with FPGA or a Raspberry.

And honestly it’s not a crazy idea
