The MAIN thing I remember about that chip was how much better the
organ sounded after the 50240 was replaced with a 32 MHz master clock
divider system based on 'F161 counters (1987). The organ then crossed
the line between 'appliance' and 'instrument' The divisors ranged
between 5920 (C) and 11175 for C#. How about 12 DDS chips? FPGA?
