Hm... I sequenced NTSC notes for the NTSC BIN on Z26.

Point is, that I'm totally deaf'n'dumb about music. All
I did so far was converting note tables to VCS frequency
values at all my best knowledge/ears/calculations.
So the actual music is really the best _I_ can produce.
All I can offer is, that if someone comes up with a
better sounding set of notes - be it for PAL - be it for
NTSC - I can replace it and/or handle that with compile
switches.
How the engine works is described in my TSM posting, the
used pitch/distortion tables can be found in there, too.
So if someone provides me with better fitting tables,
let's say within the next two weeks, I'll be happy to
replace the current one's.
Greetings,
Manuel
