The demo made me think again how cool it would be to have a dedicated beeper sound card (Z80+RAM) for ZX Spectrum, to allow such music play alongside the gameplay in 48K games.

Sleizsa Trio features 3 tone channels (one of which can play noise instead of tone), globally configurable duty cycles, and 2 interrupting click drums. It uses a mixing algorithm based on Zilogat0r's Squeeker engine for the ZX beeper, which does a somewhat better job with the Channel F's crude sound generator than Sleizsa Duo's pulse interleaving method.
