(Anyone know how pitfallII divided up the three channels >it uses into these 4?) As far as I remember, the music itself in Pitfall II is three-voice, but there is also a rhythm track (nothing great, like on an early Casio, if you remember those - they were lately sampled in some dance tracks) which I suppose is done with the remaining internal sound channel. In addition to that, there are in-game-sounds, but I think they mask out at least one of the other channels when they occur. -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
