Nice, your drum patterns were great! Pretty complex melodic path as well, cool stuff.

Zlew, it's one of the Atari ST's timers used to repeatedly change the volume in a channel of the YM between minimum and whatever it's set to play at. Because the timer isn't 100% the same speed as the notes being played on the YM, it creates a pulse width effect. Thus "SIDSound"

Big Alec explains it slightly better in more or less words here: http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=15601

I know what SIDSound is, I was trying to figure out if beeper was involved.

Anyway, maxYMiser?

My noob ear would definitely say it's SID, good job at making one chip sound like another

Yup, maxYMiser it was. I would have composed on real hardware if I hadn't been an idiot and got a STe instead of an ST.

Also, thank you, MiDoRi. There's a DSP support chip on the STe that lets you filter the output of the YM, so you can get even more SID-like sounds. Though, that's probably out of scope of the AYM category.
