Before you scoff at this, it has been done before on the Quill, another adventure game system for the Speccy. I would love an ability to use the beeper for sound effects on the Speccy side of things at the very least.

Thanks for making an awesome creation system. <3

No worries : ).  I only scoff when people ask why Lantern crashes on Ubuntu or some platform it was never designed to support.  What sort of sound capabilities were you thinking of?  Short sound bytes for certain events, or ambient music?  Both are out of my knowledge range but I could investigate. I've just started a new teaching job and am absolutely buried under work. I can't see I'll have any opportunity to do more work on it until the summer, but I'm always open to new things.  When sort of music does Quill support? Is there an actual music editor?

I was thinking of more like short beeper sound bites for certain events on 48k, but maybe it could be expanded for music on 128k. As for what Quill is capable of, I would say beeper sound effects as well.
