Neither. If they're doing the same thing they did when I heard it, it was neither a digitized sample nor a system-controlled CD. That music was synthesized in real time from an internal notation that could be edited on the screen. I've forgotten how many bits wide the D-A channel was, but what impressed me was the synthesis software and the DSP chip. -=- Zippy sez, --Bob I'm a fuschia bowling ball somewhere in Brittany
