DOSBox Staging Basics
Today: Emulation of parallel port DAC models

Those familiar with DOSBox know that these three devices are emulated with the universal 'disney=true' setting.

Like 'sbtype', we wanted the model of LPT DAC to be configurable, so we deprecated the 'disney' setting in favour of 'lpt_dac' that takes any of the following:

- 'disney' for the Disney Sound Source
- 'covox' for the Covox Speech Thing
- 'ston1' for the Stereo-on-1 DAC device
- 'none' to disable the DAC (default)

This is paired with a corresponding filter setting, 'lpt_dac_filter', which approximates how the original device sounded.
This means that the Disney Sound Source (which included a little speaker inside it) will sound a lot like you might remember.

Examples:

Like the other audio filters settings, the 'lpt_dac_filter' can be toggled on, off, or customised.
