- That's not completely off. Of course some channels could be used for polyphone
- instruments. Of course there are instruments that are missing just in some
- situations because you ran out of channels. But IMHO there are even more cases

- That's just the lack of a sophisticated player that generates the mixed
- sequences on the fly.
