History

Roman Sherbakov is original author of Winamp plugin (in_vtx.dll) for playing AY/YM music in VTX format. It was open source, but in Delphi and asm :-( So I can't directly port it to Linux and start rewritting it in C. Month after I drop mail to Roman for request help and following develop we do in pair: I was responceable for code, Roman for synthezer algoritm. His site is http://vtx.microfor.ru.
