 Wikipedia: ZSNES
ZSNES has several capabilities which its Super Famicom and Super Nintendo counterparts did not have; it can "smooth" the appearance of the screen through a variety of anti-aliasing schemes, variable-width fonts, and it has a better quality of sound output than the original console systems.
In addition, it can create screenshots of games, it can "save" the game at any point by recording the game state, and it can capture sound files, saving them as SPC700 sound format files which can be read by an external player or a specialized Winamp plugin, such as Alpha-II SPC player.
SPC700 sound format actually sounds more realistic on ZSNES than on the actual Super Famicom or SNES console.

 SPC700 sound format - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The SPC700 chip (or emulator thereof) produces sound by executing the embedded program, which processes the stored music data and transforms them to a sequence of DSP commands issued to the chip, which in turn produce the audio output in accordance to the DSP commands.
The SPC700 chip produces 16-bit sound at 32 kHz, but SPC700 emulators generally can be reconfigured to output at a different sampling rate (for example, 5 to 64 kHz).
Some SPC players, including SNESAmp, can even produce higher-quality output than the SPC700 itself, by outputting the sound at a higher sampling rate and using more complex interpolation than the original SPC700's interpolation, and using the built-in special "High Quality" enhancement feature (as in SNESAmp).

The SONY SPC700 is the 8-bit sound chip used in the Super Famicom, a Japanese video game console.
The SPC700 chip was very advanced for its time (1991) and may in some ways be said to rival today's wavetable synthesizer sound cards.
Programs can be developed for the SPC700 and DSP in much the same way that programs are written for PCss or Macss that play music via their sound cards.

 SPC700 sound format | English | Dictionary & Translation by Babylon
The SPC700 chip (or emulator thereof) produces sound by executing the embedded program, which processes the stored music data and transforms them to a sequence of DSP commands issued to the chip, which in turn produce the audio output in accordance to the DSP commands.
The capabilities of the SPC700 DSP commands allow for music synthesis by samples (analogous to MOD or IT music playback), allowing long stretches of audio which would likely take up several megabytes—even hundreds, for particularly lengthy pieces—if stored as a digital waveform (using PCM or similar), to be produced from only 64 kilobytes of data.
The SPC700 chip produces 16-bit sound at 32 kHz, but SPC700 emulators generally can be reconfigured to output at a different sampling rate (from 8 to 48 kHz).

The VGM format was intended for the SMS, in particular the PSG (programmable sound generator) for the SMS, and of course, the Game Gear too.
Go here for some samples of that soundchip.My bet is that the developers of the format (which I know quite well) wanted to make the VGM format "universal", so it could be used for any kind of system, ranging from the 2600 to the Mega Drive.
It's the player (and it's driver) which produces the sound, not the format itself (but as I said, GYM is an exception to this, because of improper logging).

It is almost entirely programmed in X86 assembly language, allowing it to run any SNES game at 50-60 FPS with only a 400MHz Pentium 2 CPU and 64MB RAM, with full sound and basic anti-aliasing.
Originally, ZSNES was closed source, however, in 2001, a new license was established and the project became open-source using SourceForge, a branch of the Open Source Development Network, as a basis of operations.

Snes9x's full-screen mode uses DirectDraw to switch to the required resolution and depth, but if you intend to use the Windowed mode, you must have your desktop depth set to 256 colours if translucency emulation and 16-bit rendering are switched off and not required or hi-colour mode (32768/65536 colours) if translucency effects are required.
SNES ROM images come in lots of different formats, depending on the copier device that was originally used to create the image amongst other things, and sometimes Snes9x has trouble auto-detecting the exact ROM format.
Lowering the sound playback rate, selecting 8-bit mono sound or turning off interpolated and sync-sound modes will also help boost emulation speed.

The SPC700 is a CPU which executes a sound program code to play these samples, for how long, what pitch, and so forth and the 65816 is the main CPU of the snes which is responsible for transferring the program code to the SPC700.
Now the problem here is that there is no reserved place in the game rom for the sound program and detecting where the program code data is located isn't easy.
So at the moment, the best way to capture spc700 code is to capture them right when the song starts in the actual snes emulation.
