My SID-II works fine on other macs including my cx at work, but it doesn't
work properly on my cx at home. The sound is getting scrambled in such a way
that it looks like the sound ribbon has been cut length wise and put back
together in the wrong order!!! I can see the sound wave but it is discontinous.
The wave will go off the top and continue back on the bottom. Really bizarr.

Now I'm wondering if this is a hardware problem with a very early cx. I have
some vague recollection of there being a problem with  the really early
cx's of which my home cs is. The serial ports seem to work just fine for
printing and modeming (as it is right now) but perhaps it doesn't work well
when it is externally clocked as I think the SID is.

Any ideas?
