Musica I & II

Musica & Musica 2 by Lester Hands were the staple music generating programs for the Color Computer for years. With four voices through the Coco's 6-bit DAC as well as a mod to Musica 2 that allowed more voices(?) through the Speech Systems Symphony 12 Stereo Sound cart and Tandy's Sound & Speech cart. I know there were more features in Musica 2 but I never had a chance to run one of these systems so my knowledge is limited to the Rainbow magazine ads. I know there is a mass of music out there in Musica format so let's get some stuff in here.
NOTE: Musica will not display properly on the VCC Color Computer 3 emulator due to a flaw in the graphics system in VCC. With VCC back in developement, there is hope that this will be fixed as it's one of the few flaws in the VCC emulation. Musica runs properly in the MESS Coco emulations.
