Paul Taulborg visited my music studio, saying:
 PT> Hmm.. Very interesting.. I agree, it gets.. annoying? If you have a

With MIDI, any computer able keep up with the MIDI events will perform 
equally.  It's the quality of software that may differ.  I want to get 
my hands on Bars n' Pipes Pro now that it's shareware, and the manuals
can be purchased for $20.  :)
 PT> those are not accurate... Here is the rundown of sound rates I can
 PT> get: 
 PT> Mixing buffer can be up to 32k
 PT> Mixing rate can be up to 58.0kHz
It *IS* possible to squeeze more out of the chip, but 8-bit 22KHz is
what it's originally designed for, and what it advertised in original
spec sheets.
 PT> ... Could be inaccurate, but that is what "Hippoplayer" tells me it
 PT> can be mixed at with the current card and chipsets...  
Exactly what I was talking about...  the better players and programs
can really squeeze everything out of the Amiga to get better results.
If only PC programmers worked as hard.  [deep sigh]
... C'mon Honey it's only a computer -- put down the axe.
