Well, an extra 64k of DOC RAM, if it was supported by Apple, would allow
more and larger waveforms to be loaded into DOC RAM.. This would allow loading
of many complex SoundSmith instruments without compression, for example. It
would also allow more of a digitized sound to be loaded into DOC RAM which
would reduce the amount of time used to copy parts of the waveforms of
digitized sounds into the DOC RAM. Basically, it would just make life easier
for the Sound Tool Set and the Note Sequencer/Synthesizer tools.
