Please, someone tell me that the HardFrame (the controller that
I was planning on buying) does not kill the sound while it's running.  I
had visions of loading in music as it was playing...

:Note : I have lots of other programs on the hard disk with sound and music

Ok.  You can give sounds different priority levels, maybe the HardFrame is
overriding the chip's sound for lower priorities?

Then again, aren't these priorities a function of the software, not the
hardware?  Is the HardFrame really beating up the Amiga's sound?

One more thing:

:   Falcon --  I just got this today and installed it on my hard drive.

Did you try running it from the "floppies", first?
