Even a 30th of a second is a lot in terms of a drum machine. What if
10 sounds need to be played all at once?
btw, I've found that if a sound is playing, and you .play it again,
the first will stop playing and re-trigger.
I'm still not getting great timing even with the modifications
suggested here. If a 30th of a second is it, maybe RealBasic is
meant for this. I'm using microseconds, but would a timer be better?

Using a Timer, you should be able to easily play sounds with a
precision of about 1/30 second on the Mac (assuming nothing much else
going on). Using a tight loop, you could do much better, but then of
course you're sucking a lot of CPU time. If you're not getting those
results, then I suspect there's something wrong with your approach or
implementation.
