Pokey: nested 'for' statements


An Atari Pokey sound chip is controlled directly via bus and data lines from an Arduino using three nested 'FOR' statements.

The results are much more complex (and musically interesting) than the code would lead one to believe - a minimalist / maximalist approach.

yeah sure, be warned that this whole thing is FAR from perfect, and i will still improve code (or you can, or whatever).

enjoy!

pokey sounds great, i love the HPF function.
