Converts one or more 4-operator FM instrument patches from DefleMask .DMP files into a Professional Music Driver (PMD) Music Macro Language (.MML) file for use in PMD68 (Yamaha YM2151), PMD88/PMD98 (Yamaha YM2203/YM2608), and PMDTOWNS (Yamaha YM2612) music files. The contents of the resulting MML file may be copied and directly pasted onto your music file’s MML source code, or you may indirectly include the output MML file into your MML music code via an #Include statement above every music command.
