*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
the ST uses a standard video game type chip from GI (general instruments) i
cant remember the number right now but i have the user manual and will be
glad to send you a copy if you wish. it is a 2 voice chip and can produce
music and decent video game type sounds, but sure aint the Amiga or even the
C64 sound chip.
