Last trivia question for the day/night: I own Studio Session (the reason I
keep a mac 512 around) and I swear I am hearing 6 digital voices from it
simultaneously. I was under the impression that the Mac sound hardware was
only 4 digital voices, and that the extra 2 voices were done via realtime
mixing on two of the channels -- however, literature from the time claim that
Jam Session/Studio Session use "hardware tricks" to get the extra 2 voices.
Who is right?
