Yamaha PSR-160

Added an unpacked wave for your sampling delight.
It contains some horrendously garish stuff that is so bad it is enjoyable.

Also, some samples like crash cymbal, are intentionally severely lowpassed - and not by me!
This is how a market differentiation is made: low grade keyboards just had to have some
specific cheapness signature in their sound, otherwise it might be too good.
In such cases there is no economy in rom space, since sample is still full size.

In more severe cases - almost all GEW7/7S-based synths (this one is GEW12) many samples
have strongly bumped up mid-high frequencies for extra crappyness, or even more lowpassed
or catastrophically low samplerate waves. Nevertheless, those things are enjoyable as well.

I've made wave unpack tool(s) for almost all GEW and RYP chips and formats of waverom sample data,
but can't get any more spare time to continue developing them, so here we go - single piece wav as-is.
Normally I would have extraction of separate waves with loopoints in names and other goodies, but not yet
for this GEW12 chip.

Wave formats used in this synth is 8bit and GEW12-10.

By the way, if you happen to have dumped any roland/yamaha/korg/whatwever waveroms that are not lying around the web,
let me know!

Have fun!

Endinanness in your programming tools may be reversed.
To ensure that what you burn matches the necessary endianness, you'll have to dump
the old rom from your device through your tools and compare byte sequence with this one.
Swap bytes if necessary, and then burn that data.
