I was unable to access self test from MAME,since wanted to grab sound effects, but i want to be honest my version is prehistoric

For the music i went to another approach: there is a music player for arcade and FM synth music called Hoot; it allows to enable/disable channels on the tune and to record output as .wav, so i did use it to grab samples and then use it to redo songs in milkytracker in three channels. As you can hear from the video, they sound quite similar BUT different enough to give the port its own personality.
(ok, need some fixes like the fourth channel on the start tune is not silenced and some tune up, but is there)
