Possible to add amplify option?

[40wattrange]

It seems that this core is very quiet compared to a lot of others. If using it during streaming I have to add roughly 10db of gain just to get it roughly where everything else sits.

Is there a way to add an amplify option so the volume is of a "normal" level with the rest of the cores? Maybe something like a +10db toggle?.

I understand the core probably already has the exact audio, so that's why I just request as an option rather than modifying the audio overall.

Something like this could probably be added...

Wouldn't be simple enough for me to add personally, so someone else more skilled will have to do it. Here's how it's done in the TGFX16-CD core:

As far as I recall the FM audio gain was reduced as a way to prevent distortion via the Genesis core and I assume those changes were inherited in the Mega CD core as well. Perhaps an option to boost just the CD red book audio could be added without worrying about distortion/clipping, but then you might have too low FM audio balance.

I will add a compressor similar to TGFX

Added. Check upcoming nightly/unstable build.

Thank you sorgelig! Sounds great for me at 4X. Thanks for implementing this - "The Domain" appreciates you!
