awesome!

Final questions -- am I right in guessing that the polyphony tables were
implemented to allow for really fast effects like Rob talks about?
Effects that are too fast for MIDI to trigger?

How fast can the tables be "executed" on the SidStation?  From a quick
look at the manual, it looks like it can be three times faster than
playing 1/64 notes?  (if speed is set to 1, going by the oscillator/pitch
table on page 20)  am I right?

thanks
