These are typically written to by [[DMA|Sound DMA]], but can also be written to manually by the user.
Hyper Voice samples are typically written by [[DMA|Sound DMA]], but can also be written manually by the user. In the latter case, the "channel mode" setting is ignored - it always behaves as if it were in "stereo" mode, writing one channel after the other in sequence.

Hyper Voice is a headphone-only sample output channel introduced with the WonderSwan Color. It allows converting 8-bit signed and unsigned, mono and stereo samples into 16-bit signed PCM sent directly to the headphone output, after mixing with the traditional four channels.

Unlike the Sound sample output registers, these can be written to - allowing for direct 16-bit sample output.

Hyper Voice samples are typically written by Sound DMA, but can also be written manually by the user. In the latter case, the "channel mode" setting is ignored - it always behaves as if it were in "stereo" mode, writing one channel after the other in sequence.

  ++------------------ Channel mode:
                         0 = Stereo
                         1 = Mono, left channel only
                         2 = Mono, right channel only
                         3 = Mono, both channels

Input samples are treated as signed 8-bit values. If volume is not 100% and sample scaling mode is not ignored, they may instead be treated as unsigned and/or be rescaled to the following value ranges:

Sample scaling modes - resulting sample ranges
Algorithm/Volume 100% 50% 25% 12.5%
Unsigned 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x8000 .. 0xFFFF 0x8000 .. 0xBFFF 0x8000 .. 0x9FFF
Unsigned, negated 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x0000 .. 0x7FFF 0x4000 .. 0x7FFF 0x6000 .. 0x7FFF
Signed 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x4000 .. 0xBFFF 0x6000 .. 0x9FFF 0x7000 .. 0x8FFF
Ignored 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF 0x0000 .. 0xFFFF
