I think you should win a prize for the most unnecessary use of an (implied) GOTO! To eliminate it just reverse the test:

Code:
      IF root(x)<>a THEN
        SYS"midiOutShortMsg",hMidiOut%,(177)+(123<<8)+(0<<16)
        SYS"midiOutShortMsg",hMidiOut%,(145)+(root(x)+69<<8)+(50<<16)
        SYS"midiOutShortMsg",hMidiOut%,(145)+(root(x)+64<<8)+(50<<16)
      ENDIF 

Remember, GOTO (with a line number destination) is by design incredibly slow in BBC BASIC. It works by searching the program line-by-line, from the start, until the specified line is found - even if the program is tens of thousands of lines long! For the same reason, GOTO does not work at all in a library or CALLed module. Just don't do it. Ever. :)

I used two of hitsware's algorithmically-generated tunes in one of my games, SubZap II:

http://www.jeroengroenendaal.com/repository/bb4w/progs/zip/subzap2.zip

I'd say the music makes the game worth playing! smiley

hitsware: I haven't listened to your latest hit yet (since I haven't downloaded the library HQSOUND), but I did listen to the previous MIDI-based one, and I thought it was excellent.

WOW !
Thank You Dave. I had forgotten about that. That piece was done with ZEL .....:

http://zelsoftware.org/

A main difference between BBCmidi and ZELmidi is that ZEL produces midi files. I.E. songname.mid, while BBC addresses the synth directly. I hadn't yet discovered BBCbasic at that time. I prefer the BBC approach because the tunes can go on forever as opposed to the finite length of a midi file ...........
ZEL is worth a look though ..........

HQSOUND is not a requirement, it is simply a way of improving the quality.

Incidentally over at the Yahoo! group (but not at the direct link I gave) HQSOUND has been updated to v1.2 which supports 127 amplitude steps, rather than 16, to reduce the problem of being able to hear the steps in a slow amplitude envelope.

If I rename the 2 versions, put them both in LIB, call 1 from a routine, run the routine, then call 2 and run the routine .......... Will the second version over-write the first ?

1) No matter the order entered I get an error on second iteration

2) Must listen some more. At first I was hearing clearly the noise I speak of, but when I simplified the routine as much as possible it seemed to go away (both HQ versions) Seems perhaps other things can aggravate the problem.

Code:
      *TEMPO 133

      ENVELOPE 1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,127,0,0,-1,127,0

      CALL @lib$+"HQS_1"

      FOR x=0 TO 7
        READ n
        SOUND 0,1,n,1: SOUND 4096,1,0,10
      NEXT x

      RESTORE

      CALL @lib$+"HQS_2"

      FOR x=0 TO 7
        READ n
        SOUND 0,1,n,1: SOUND 4096,1,0,10
      NEXT x

      END

So long as you run them in separate sessions of BB4W (i.e. separate processes) they will of course be entirely independent. That's how I have been comparing different versions; commonly I have three or more copies of BB4W running simultaneously.

The alternative is to compile your programs and run the EXEs, which of course also ensures that they are independent.

Here's a good test of the difference (also worth trying without the HQSOUND library at all); it is very important that you listen with headphones:

Code:
      ENVELOPE 1,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,-1,-1,-1,126,0
      SOUND 1,1,148,252
