Just take a look at Space Quest. the music is using the internal speakers and it's really cool... but I don't know if you could replicate it in QB.... because I think there's a bass line as well as a treble line... if you could even call it that.

One night I had a dream where I was breaking balls. The next morning,

A Severe Error has crippled BB2 for the time being... I have to figure it out, but until then you won't see much of it

I've been to Jazz concerts that sounded like that.
And it sounded good, I take it :lol:

You can: interpolation. I coded a tracker that could create and play 2 channel music using the beeper.
The trick is: you have two notes that have to play during "x" milliseconds... Just loop until time has passed and play note 1 for a tick, note 2 for a tick, and start over.
I can dig for the proggie. Though it's not hard at all to achieve using SOUND and a table with each note's pitch in hertzs

What do you mean by that?
Like two oncoming rythms at the same time? I've been trying to do this for a while. Source please

I'm digging for it. Meanwhile, try this:
Code:
' C is 262 Hertzs.
' G is 392 Hertzs.
Print "C4"
FOR i% = 1 TO 18
SOUND 262, 1
NEXT i%
Print "G4"
FOR i% = 1 TO 18
SOUND 392, 1
NEXT i%
Print "C4 + G4"
FOR i% = 1 TO 9
SOUND 392, 1
SOUND 262, 1
NEXT i%
This sounds somewhat bad, as 18.2 notes per second is not very accurate. The best thing you can do is using a high precission timer and direct access to the beeper using OUT to shift notes faster.
