If it's VA1, you can mod that sucker and it will then be functionally identical to the first two models. It will then also be compatible with the Terraonion megaSD cartridge, which plays regular SegaCD images. The only thing it won't play is SegaCD 32X, as it's missing the expansion port. RetroRGB has pictures on how to tell whether a Genesis 3 is VA1 or VA2. After the triple bypass, it will have at least the same audio and better video capability than the best model 1 version.

You can literally build it and provide it to other Brazilians yourself! That’s the beauty of open source. Components are widely available even during the industry-wide parts shortage. Another benefit of being open-source is that you can adapt it to a more “easy route” if you want which probably means making versions tailored to specific console revisions. One example: A change that made bottom installs easier on the Model 2/3 made the board hit the DIN on the Model 1 when replacing the RF modulator, which is one of the things that can be fixed. Japanese consoles have no RF modulator to replace anyway so you could interface with the original DIN and pipe stereo to the headphone jack. The 3BP also needs 5.6k pull up resistors for lifted pin installs which is probably coming to the universal design. If you’d rather use the pull-ups on the board and leave the pins down you could design it for that.

Great informative video as always Bob! I found out about the Triple Bypass from your website some time back. Since then i have tried it (and Voultars RGB) on multiple MKI and MKII PAL consoles. As you can imagine i got different results each time both in audio and visual. My main objective was getting rid of the jailbars. With many hours of tinkering I found on the MKI VA4 i ended up just lifting the sub carrier and using Firebrandx's audio mod got the best results (on that specific board) I prefer the colour output of the CXA. MKII I used the triple bypass on two versions one UK-PAL and one ASIAN-PAL. The jailbars was 99% gone on the ASIAN model but around 80% gone on the PAL model. Now here's whats more interesting, putting them through an OSSC jailbars are a lot more noticeable but through a Framemiester you can barely notice them on any model once the mods are installed or even the stock CXA. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect Sega Genesis/Mega Drive board that has the least noise even after trying it on more than 6 different boards. I'm trying to get hold of a Brazilian MKIII and a X'Eye to see how those results turn out :)

Great video. FWIW I'm no audiophile (I hate people being pedantic about nothing) but I certainly noticed issues with my MD2's audio. After installing a Mega Amp 2.0 (which I think is the same as the audio part of the 3BP you're talking about?) everything's cleared up significantly. Personal opinion but on this note, I think the MD2 is under-rated as I get stereo from the original din and no jailbars. I also like the style of the MD2 as I had one as a kid. Thought I'd mention this as everybody on forums told me to do the 3BP (most don't seem to appreciate what the Mega Amp 2.0 is or why I wouldn't want to use the full 3BP in an MD2). I'm glad that I was able to get away with the simpler, single mod as each bit of fiddling/soldering comes with a level of risk.
@AceTrainerX3
@AceTrainerX3 2 жыл бұрын
I'm guessing it's because the Mega Amp doesn't really fit in with MDFourier, and isn't as close to original Model 1 MD sound as possible. The 3BP uses a slightly different circuit, which takes MDFourier analysis into account. I'm also the kind of guy who'd rather just bypass the audio on the MD2's as well, as I don't want to lose composite video and the model 2's RGB is already pretty good.

I have a Model 2 and a Hi-Def Graphics Model 1. Switching between the two, my Model 2 has substantially worse audio quality. A good track to test this on is the Stage 1 bar music in Streets of Rage 2. On the Model 2 it sounds terrible, and switching over to the Model 1 the difference is immediately noticeable. I'm probably going to get a triple bypass done for my Model 2 as it's the one I grew up with (never knew the Model 1 existed until later in my life), plus the Sega CD I have is the Model 2 version.

Hello Bob, I have a off topic question. One of my CRT TVs has too much overscan when playing NTSC games (I live in a PAL country). I managed to find a manual with information on how to access the service menu. With the menu, I can get a horizontal line to show across the screen but I can't actually do anything with it. My question is if my TV is one of those that you have to physically open up to change these settings, if you happen to have time to look at the manual here (page 9 for service menu): www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/19192/sanyo_ce28SN3-c.html Page 7-8 makes me believe you need to open it. I'm definitely not comfortable with opening it and I'm aware of the risks, I'd just like to know if I might be doing something wrong with the service menu. Thanks a lot for your help and all of your videos.

Need a little help with this... I recently bought a genesis 1 with triple bypass and with a 32x i'm getting very low or no sounds coming from the left channel. I reflowed my solder points and checked connections. For example in virtua fighter all voice samples are only coming from right speaker. However in virtua racing all are coming from left and right. any idea on how to fix this? Does the 32x only carry mono audio for some of their extra sound effects and samples? I have the same 32x and cables connected to my genesis 2 with mega amp 2.0 and have no issues at all. If it comes down to it is there a way I can re-enable the headphone jack? I believe its a VA5 or VA6 model 1 genesis. I really want to use this for the rgb bypass but the low audio is giving me a tough time.

I like how Bob says in his comparisons that it is "one of the worst" motherboard revisions. Oh god, I wish my audio sounded that good for original audio on the first two Model 2's that I bought on ebay. The audio was so bad for me that my ears felt like they were going to bleed. This comparison at least sounds bearable on the original. I wonder if the 3BP will work on my horror Model 2.

Hi Bob! You are the only guy I trust 100% on Bypass information so I can change my Mega Drive. I would like to know, honestly, what is the best bypass card for RGB on Mega Drive, model 1? Warm regards from Brazil!

No, that's a software issue that can't be corrected on original hardware, with the original game.

Video doesn't seem very clear about Model 1 Interference after triple bypass. Will the Model 1 look as crisp as a model 3 with triple bypass? If not how much is the difference. And is there anyway to have no interference on the model 1
@RetroRGB
@RetroRGB 11 ай бұрын
Analog video on Model 1's will never look as good as a bypassed Model 3. But they'll still have much less interference than stock. Maybe try this first and see if it's a good enough improvement for you?: www.retrorgb.com/genesis-1-keep-composite-while-improving-rgb.html

Hey great video as alwaysl Let me make a question. What do you think about the audio quality of the Genesis core in Mister Fpga? Wich filter do you suggest to use on it? Im using the no filter option and the sound is pretty clean.

Genesis audio on MiSTer is AWESOME; The team uses MDFourier to make sure it's accurate. Filtered vs unfiltered totally depends on your speakers and your ears...there's no right or wrong answer, it's whatever you like best :)
