So i've hit a philisophical roadblock. By what it says in the
synthcart manual and what it says in the music programming guide
don't jibe. I suspect that the manual is a little more inaccurate
than the programing guide. If I go by the manual, you will be able to
play scales across the keyboards and have c3 and c5 be the same, just
two octives apart. Or I can do it straight per the guide witch would
make the keys a weird 31 note scale where every note should be more
in tune with the synthcart and atari. The problem with this si that
you would basically have to to relearn the notes on the keyboard
cause the average scale on the atari looks like this:

4 000 Square

# Note NTSC PAL Driver Code
-- ---- --- --- -----------
1 b8 -9 -23 [%00000001]
2 e8 -11 -25 [%00000010]
3 b7 -10 -23 [%00000011]
4 g7 +4 -9 [%00000100]
5 e7 -11 -25 [%00000101]
7 b6 -9 -23 [%00000111]
8 a6 -13 -27 [%00001000]
9 g6 +4 -9 [%00001001]
11 e6 -11 -25 [%00001011]
14 c6 +2 -11 [%00001110]
15 b5 -10 -23 [%00001111]
17 a5 -14 -27 [%00010001]
19 g5 +4 -9 [%00010011]
23 e5 -12 -25 [%00010111]
26 d5 -16 -29 [%00011010]
29 c5 +2 -11 [%00011101]
31 b4 -9 -23 [%00011111]


So what sounds better accuracy or convience?

We could have it both ways in time, but Im trying to focus on doing
it one way first.
