Well, fun and useful is not same thing... Anyway maybe someone can use
this mode forexample to find correct coordinates by just testing pset
commands in direct mode or something else ??. I founded this trick out
about 5 years ago, but I have used it only once or twice.

Well, it is Ok to use it, but I was only saying, that there is some better
keys too, that are not used to anything special (Like Yes/No keys)

Ok, this has no meaning for speed, but this enabbles you to download
forexample MSX1 ROMs to your tR so, that you can still run it with
original Z80 speed. This can make many many tricks to be availabble, like
PSG emulator for SCC :-)

No idea...

No combination of 2 _sofware_ instruments, but if you make a combination
by using violin (voise 1) and flute (voice 4... I think..) you can get a
totally intependent sound, and you can still define any software voice you
like...
Basic idea: Select voice to be violin. Set volume off and start playing
sound. (Key on) now switch that sound to flute and put volume up.
TA-DAA !!! you have nice a bit noisy sound.

Yes, I think, that soon everybody has heard about Oracle, but atleast I
have not yet heard any composing results.
