The Blue Alpha sampler tended to sound like a cheap radio with duff batteries. It also drifted like hell! I told Adrian that timer IC was a bad idea!
I believe the Edwin Blink Design was better, but I never saw it in the flesh. On Speaking gadgets, no the Blue Alpha had rubbish software in it. I actually debugged it a bit for Adrian, but gave up when I hit that bl**dy page boundary bug! What would be needed for me would be a screen reader and keyboard echo. That could not be done I think. There are TSRs on the PC that allow that sort of thing, but an interrupt driven routine on SAM would probably slow things down. Brian -- Brian Gaff Sam Dept.
