YM2612 VST – Free Sega Genesis Sound Chip VSTi Plugin By 2612 Blog

YM2612 VST by 2612 Blog.

2612 Blog has released YM2612 VST, a freeware emulation of the Sega Genesis YM2612 sound chip in VSTi plugin format for Windows.

This is a VST that uses code which emulates the sound chip found inside of the Sega Genesis/Megadrive systems. It’s the closest you can get to the real thing currently without actually circuit bending a Genesis. If you don’t know/care what a Genesis is, this VST is basically a 4 operator FM synth.

YM2612 VST is available for free download via 2612 Blog (198kB download size, 32-bit VSTi plugin format for Windows).

The plugin emulates the Yamaha YM2612 sound chip, which was used as the sound source in Sega Genesis video game consoles. It is essentially a 4 operator FM synth.

YM2612 VST sound very good and worked stable on my machine. It also comes with a nice selection of factory presets, just enough to get you started right away (even if you’re not into FM synthesis).

This release is a couple of months old actually, but I’m posting it in the news section since it hasn’t been featured anywhere else. The developer is currently working on an improved version of YM2612 VST, which will be named Genny.
