Background info
---------------
In my last ABC80 demo "Hires Invasion", I experimented with the graphics output,
this time it's sound that is in focus.
The ABC80 doesn't have a proper way to generate tones, just a preset number of
"soundeffects". 
With those sound effects and a lot of CPU intervention, this demo generates arbitrary 
frequencies and is able to replay a two channel tune, not with the highest sound 
quality, but still...
Also, to have something to look a, there are effects running in full framerate
even with the CPU-stealing music replayer running!
