LOGO-L> Re: Sound card limits for quasi-parallelism in turtle use ?

polyphony has long been a wish-list item for those of us who'd like a 
superset logo. But it seems to be one of those things at the margins that 
gets sacrificed when the unavoidable and inevitable compromises are made 
by designers and implementers. In the eighties there were several purpose 
built 'music' logos available, and Atari logo let(lets?) you address the 
wave form. I've wanted a solution where in a multiple turtle environment, 
each turtle has a voice as one of its attributes. The beta release of 
MicroWorlds V1 did allow chords.
The closest I can get is faking it, using Microworlds V2 and LAUNCH to 
set two melodies going, slightly out of phase...but two is all you can do.
...good luck with this.
