Yep, I already done that part (back in good old C64 times :) ... My
question was rather "how much else can the AVR do while computing this
2osc/1filt voice".

When the computation timing is already pretty tight, adding the MIDI
handler with the serial interrupt slamming in might be just the tad too
much, although it's usually no problem to any architecture.
