I take it that you didn't read the earlier messages about Stefan's Mod
Player ... ? There is/was a bug in WinCoupe, which is now fixed (and in Si's
hands), and the next release of WinCoupe will incorporate this fix.
Currently, WinCoupe does not 'need' DAC emulation (although I am working on
it!)

It wouldn't be possible to simply 'extract' my envelope emulation code and
'share it transparently' with several sound emulation implementations.
Well, it might, it depends how you do it.
In fact, having said that, it probably should work properly, since it's only
a CSAAEnv class that handles it all. The thing is there's a bunch of tricky
things you need to be careful with when mixing the sound...

The tricky thing in question is:
SOUND 28,1;24,bin10001010;17,3;16,96;2,255;20,0

Aley, how would you emulate this? (Actually, I may have got that example
slightly wrong but you should hopefully see what I mean...)

(This is the same theory that underlies playing samples back on the SAA-1099
using the envelope controller - would you be able to emulate this too?)
