Yes, this is the nail square on the head. Anything that requires a
special [fill in the blank] means the audience is limited to only those
with that special doohickey.

I actually tried playing a 1-bit audio file (that I
recorded) last night
on the M100 using a small ML routine I wrote. I could
tell it was a
person talking, but couldn't make out any of the
words. I think the
piezoelectric device the M100 uses as a "speaker" just
doesn't cut it.
At least I believe that is the problem.

Yeah, I was kinda wondering / thinking 1.7% error
might be close enough,
but not having any MIDI devices, I have no way to test it.
