Yes, thats the brobblem.

Yes, right again. You also have to switch that page every time when
interrupt is made. MB player uses hook #FD9A or #FD9F. I don't remember
witch one, but you have to remove that routine and put your own code to
switch page to MB player, call that player and switch that page back
before returning to XBASIC. This routine is not very hard to do, but there
is no point to do that, if you don't need fades, and even if you do, I
must hope, that there is somebody, who can tell you better way. This was
just my stupid idea to fix that probblem.

Yes, and you can relocate musics and this routine as you like. Ofcource it
is mutch harder to use, because you have to use poke commands to change
filename and all kind of USR commands, that you will forget many times,
before you can make your proggram to work. :) I have also notised, that
there is some kind of bug in MBK load routine, because it will hang my
computer sometimes, but because I don't know (yet) mutch about MSX-AUDIO
I can't fix it, but maybe that brobblem is in me, not in routine.

I have allways used that BLOAD version, but I don't think, that there is
any difference. If I know right, XBASIC has originaly been sold in Japan 
as a module.
