c, pascal, and basic have various sound commands for the pc speaker.
Soundblaster and other sound cards have more elaborate sound effects commands,
including those for the old opl fm chip.
I need compilers and source code that use these sound effects commands.

How do newer sound cards which no longer have the opl fm chip,
produce such sounds,
from simple beeps and chirps, to more complex rhythms and patterns?

Thousands of amateur programmers
must have generated tens of thousands of examples,
from star trek sound effects to countless others.
I am also most interested in source code to pan and generate other moving
effects, bird songs, and other models of natural sounds,.
with the opl chip and by newer methods.

Where can I find such programs posted or cataloged?

If you must quote me, please put your comments first.
I have already listened to mine.

I read email with speech.
So it is not possible to scroll past the quotes without listening to them again,
to quickly get to the new information.


Thanks much again as always.
