(C) Skaven 1998

        email:    skaven_remedy.fi
        homepage: http://isis.yok.utu.fi/~skaven

         This song demonstrates the use of filter envelopes (and
        NNAs, and other envelopes) in Impulse Tracker.

         Warning: due to its unsophisticated use of the envelopes,
        it occasionally hogs a ferocious amount of channels. Either
        play it with a card of limited polyphony, or set the channel
        limit to 30 or so, if you start experiencing problems with
        speed (there is no radical sound quality difference).

         As this song relies heavily on filters, it will probably
        sound somewhat stale without them. You need a SB16 with MMX
        or an AWE-32/64, or an EWS-64 to play the filter envelopes
        correctly.
