I'm not sure who the "you" is your referring to, but Cinemu supports all
Cinematronics sound boards using the cable I describe on my website.
Unfortunately I've never got around to supporting the ZVG in Cinemu, go figure!
It would require 2 parallel ports to support the ZVG and soundcard, but you get
an emulation that probably could not be told apart from the original, except
maybe the vectors would line up better on the ZVG version.

One of my next "free time" projects I'm sure! Cinemu currently supports the
Cinematronics games better than any of the other emulators I've seen (not
counting sounds), somehow all those who ported my core lost the ability to
twinkle the stars, which is too bad because it really adds a nice finishing
touch to the games with stars.
