So if I'm understanding this correctly:

Let's say I have the commands 0x82 0x80 0x81 0x84.

If the sample rate is 44.1kHz, and I lay out the instructions on a timeline with each [Instruction] being 1/44100 of a second, would it look like

A. [Play Sample]-[Delay]-[Delay]-[Play Sample]-[Play Sample]-[Delay]-[Play Sample]-[Delay]-[Delay]-[Delay]-[Delay]

or

B. [Play Sample & Delay]-[Delay]-[Play Sample & Play Sample & Delay]-[Play Sample & Delay]-[Delay]-[Delay]-[Delay]

or am I still misunderstanding

B, because the "instructions" themselves take no time. Only delays cause time to advance.

ooooooooooooooooooohhhhh, guess I have a parser to rewrite

this is probably what was giving me those strange artifacts, I was going with A this whole time

Nice project. Definitely looking forward to seeing this in its finished form!
