API Reference Definitions - DhrBaksteen/ArduinoOPL2 GitHub Wiki

Notation used in the API reference

• Arguments that are limited to a certain range are given as [minValue, maxValue]
• Arguments that are one of a limited set are given as {option1, option2 ... optionN}
• Channel arguments will show MAX_CHANNEL as the maximum channel number that can be used. This number will be different depending on the board you're using (9 for OPL3 Audio Board and 36 for OPL3 Duo). Therefor MAX_CHANNELS should be read as getNumChannels() - 1.
