Tried this on the Mega SG through a Mega Everdrive Pro and it seems to be a no-go. The audio makes it unbearable. Non-stop high pitch screeches.

Sorry to hear that. The sound driver needs to be emulated pretty precisely. Some older emulators like Gens also suffer this issue.

Were you using firmware 4.9?

Yes, this was using the recent 4.9 firmware for the Mega SG. 

Ugh! Sucks that after all these years Mega SG audio is still inaccurate. 

I was told that JB 7.8 (Jailbreak based on 4.8) works playing from a SD card on the Sg. You could try that, or downgrading to OS 4.8 and see if that clears it. Don't know if using a Mega Everdrive has anything to do with the glitched audio.

Downgrading to Mega SG firmware 4.8 fixed the issue for me. Something introduced with the 4.9 firmware seems to be the cause.

Indeed. I think they call that a regression when you fix one thing, and break something else. I contacted Analogue (see my other post edit) and they said it will be fixed in a future firmware update. :)

Just found out the latest batch (despite Analogue saying 'no hardware changes on pre-orders') they were forced to change hardware. So if you have the latest batch, you will presumably only be able to downgrade to v4.9 or higher since the older firmware won't support the new bits.

Here is an example (v 1.1) on a 4.9 OS Mega Sg, Mega Drive x5 v3.14

Audio_Glitch_Video (sorry my XR1 refused to output video)

@Woodfrog, could you please contact Analog and report it to them? Perhaps it's an easy patch to implement. [edit] i contacted Analogue, and got a response. :)


Sound works on my cheap-ish MegaRetronHD clone though. 0_o Glad i can play it on that at least.
