SNES and Playstation Cubic Adpcm Interpolation (jsgroth.dev)
It’s been a minute, and I haven’t done a whole lot of emulation work recently, but this is a topic I’ve wanted to do a short post about for a while: a really simple audio enhancement for SNES and PlayStation emulation that works surprisingly well with some games. It’s more noticeable for SNES, but there are some PlayStation games that benefit from this as well!
