I've posted a better sample of the output from my AppleCrate
music synthesizer.

I've eliminated the cassette transfer, so the speed and pitch
are now exactly as it performs the piece.  I've also slightly
improved the voice, so that it is more "pianolike".  A couple
of minor (but nagging) bugs in the timing have also been fixed,
so all notes in a chord that are supposed to sound together
actually do.  (This is a little trickier than it sounds, since
the notes are scheduled on the machines with little regard for
what that oscillator played previously.  The result is that the
same chord is often played by different machines at different
times--and you shouldn't be able to tell the difference!)

There are still "ticks" where notes "release", but I know how
to get rid of them with more tricks...  ;-)

I'm adding "paging" to the MIDI conversion program, so that
it can handle large MIDI files.

I've also decided that a voice editor with real-time sampling
of the edited voice would be very useful in building a voice
bank, so there's another project...
