| - | ====== Music Processor ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The music processor can be thought of as an independent CPU handling all output to the music/noise ports. The MUZCPU has 4 registers: | ||
| - | |||
| - | | MPC | Like all program counters, points to the next data byte to fetch. | | ||
| - | | MSP | Like a stack pointer, points to return addresses on the stack. | | ||
| - | | DURATION | Loaded at the start of a note, then decremented every 60th of a second. | | ||
| - | | VOICES | A status register that tells which voices (tones) to load with what data. | | ||
| - | |||
| - | The voices status register is shown below. Execution proceeds right-to-left. Make sure that you always have at least one PC incrementing bit or load on. | ||

| - | | INC PC | OUT TONE A | INC PC | OUT TONE B | INC PC | OUT TONE C | OUT VIBRA | OUT VOLN | | ||
