OPL has multiple variants (OPL2, OPL3, etc), and within them there is variance depending on whether you're using the original Yamaha chip or some emulation thereof

Yeah You'd need someone dedicated to USING the AdLib/OPL to get the max out of it. Just like one may optimize code instead of just converting and hoping the CPU - GPU is powerful enough.

Dumbing it down, essentially... making it simply 'good enough'.

Usually, game devs would make the music for the high-end stuff and then use the most basic generic way possible to provide for AdLib/Soundblaster.

(I do have a reproduction AdLib here and it sounds like I remember it with the demo disks)

Machforr (16:39:42)
I used to own an AdLib and the music on the demo disks were different in style and sound than the FM from other games

(Tyrian also uses AdLib REALLY well)
