- Polyphonic Music version 1.20:
-
- Date: 12/8/89
- From: Ed P. Grigassy
-
- Well here it is! My third upgrade in the polyphonic music programs and
- C language routines. What's exciting is that I've added Pascal (Turbo, that
- is) to the PC three voice world! I'm also very enthusiastic about the new,
- improved playing routines (ver 1.10) included in this package. These
- routines should set a standard for three voice music since they have the
- highest quality I've seen anywhere on the PC market! This package is
- definately the most powerful music package you can own without purchasing
- extra hardware (like MIDI cards, or sound digitizers).

- By the way, if you really want to have some fun, try playing some of the
- .ply files at ridiculously fast speeds (like 200 or less, 10 is really
- interesting). Running looppoly at these speeds sounds like you are
- nearby some heavy machinery! (Type LOOPKB songname 10 <enter>)

- Enjoy!
