 Nice Idea, but if you want it SUN compatible, you'll have two problems:

1) If you write a routine using the "ordinary" PSG for output, you'll get a
poor quality.

2) If you want to write a routine using STE/TT DMA-Sound, problems will even
be bigger, cause they use different sampling rates and can't handle the
logarithmic compression/expansion.

 Anyway, I would like it! :-)
