This is only partly true. First, the OPL chip used on ADLIBs is not
called OPL1. Second, AFAIK that OPL is not equal to the OPLL used on
the FM-PAC (MSX-Music). I know of no way to create the OPLL hardware
voices on an OPLx chip, unless there is some way to extracht OPL data
for these voices from the OPLL.
However, the sound of OPLL songs played through OPLx compatible FM
chips is _almost_ the same.
It's just a matter of how high your standards are set, realy
