Summary 06460: stlforce: OKI6295 speed is too slow
Description The music/sound speed of the OKI6295 in Steel Force is too slow.
I found an arcade video of the game and compare the music at time=1:08s with the one in MAME.
The OKI6295 speed in MAME is 937500 Hz, that's the board cyrstal divided by 16 (15Mhz / 16 = 937500 Hz)
A factor of 14 is exactly the speed in the video.

Changed line 213 in drivers\stlforce.cpp from

MCFG_OKIM6295_ADD("oki", 937500 , OKIM6295_PIN7_HIGH)
to
MCFG_OKIM6295_ADD("oki", XTAL_15MHz/14, OKIM6295_PIN7_HIGH)

and check it!

I can confirm the speed/tempo of the music in MAME does seem slower than recording.
The fix suggested may or may not be valid.

A divider of 14 is a bit unusual, I believe system11 might be picking up something running on this hardware at some point tho, and would probably be able to verify then..

I have this actual PCB, just fished it out and will measure the OKI.

What does it sound like if you go with 32/32? There's a 32MHz on there too of course.

Setting the clock to XTAL_15MHz/14 doesn't make the pitch match the reference either.

Confirmed, as expected it's 32/32, measures 1Mhz at the chip.

You can't mark as resolved if nothing is in mainline
