That's a bunch of BS.  Of course the CoCo can do stereo...  You'll just
have a performance hit from it.  If the Orch-90 pack can store to both
channels with a "std" then all you would have to change in play is the
lda/sta commands to ldd/std and possibly work around having the b register
clobbered.  Then you have to adjust the timing loop.

By the way, those with a 6309 in native mode will not get proper playback
unless the timing loop is fixed to match the new cycle counts for the
instructions.

These opinions are all                      Brian                 _ /  __/  _ /
