Could make a pak with a SID (Sound Interface Device) 6581 (later replaced by the SID 8580) of MOS Technology. 
for which it handled the coconut and luegohacer s program to use, 
I was driving and could perhaps ubucar addresses in the same positions as in the c64 and serbirian the pokes, pokes programs Basic for
Or maybe we could use a friend chip is also stereo
and more advanced

> Thanks Ciaran, I knew of Synther7, but not CocoSid3. I am checking into it now. I am interested in anything coco music oriented. The Coco never had an actual sound chip like many of the 8-bit systems, but it had one hell of a processor and decent memory (for it's time) and could generate most any sound via software. The only limitation, for the most part, was that you couldn't do much of anything else while producing the sound. Sock Master got around this in CocoTracker (I think) by using the programmable interrupts in the Coco3 and creating interrupts to run the sound in the background. I was in contact with Sock a while back and he was going to share the code for  CocoTracker and I was going to write an editer to make it a "True" Tracker, but he seemed to disappear on me.
