Digicomposer seems to have the worst sound of any of the Noisetracker
players whereas Esion I has some of the best sound.  Digicomposer on the
other hand has more graphic bells and whistles, which I like, than Esion.

Oh, lemme add than Digicomposer seems to have the worst sound on an STe,
at least mine. :^)  I'm not sure about ST.
