Impressive YM3812/OPL2/Adlib (PC, ARC) Music
Some PC games had Stereo/Dual OPL2 support (included with Sound Blaster Pro CT1330 and later), and arcade games sometimes used the OKIM6295 or K053260 chip for samples. Here's a good presentation video on the first Adlib card by LGR. The later Sound Blaster cards included a 1-channel 8-bit DAC for samples, but very few OSTs combine FM and samples (not sure why).
For some games, tricks were used to make the Adlib chip work like a 6-bit DAC for sampled sfx and (very rarely) music. Examples: Super Jeopardy, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
More info on Adlib and its relation to midi music on PC can be found in this blog post by someone who was a demoscener back in the day.
