Woof! I was kind of afraid of that. "…programming the DAC and the volume control at the same time". Is there no way this can be done automatically, I.E. with two wavetables, or does the CPU have to get involved? If the latter then the CPU might just as well do all the work itself. I'm going to go back and dig out those old references to the "high resolution" mode and see exactly what they said.

See my other messages, but "…programming the DAC and the volume control at the same time…" means exactly the same as "…modulating one channel's volume with another channel…", and A) yes, the audio DMA does it for you automagically, and B) the magic register is called ADKCON. Don't know about exec/devices support, I'd do an end run around that stuff if possible.
