    Switching to the 6581 solved the problem. I might have a look at the other options later, I'm only using a simple explosion effect and no music so I'm not concerned about subtle differences in the sound quality,


    Thank you for your help

    I'm working on a game in Basic. At the start I use the Envelope command to setup a sound effect, use the Vol command to set the volume and then use Play to play the sound. But when I start the program I don't get any sound. If I exit from my program and run the menu program on one of the intro discs it plays it's tune, and if I quit back to Basic sound then works in my program. I've also found that if I keep running my program, sound sometimes starts working after a while and once it starts it keeps working.


    Is there any initialisation I should do to make sound work?

    I've just got my Mega65 and I'm starting to do some Basic programming but I'm looking at other possibilities. The copy of the Mega 65 book I've got has a chapter called "Turbo Assembler" but the chapter is blank. The only Turbo Assembler I can find is for the Commodore 64. Is there an assembler for the Mega65 also called Turbo, or is this saying that you can use the Commodore 64 version on the Mega65?
