	I'm very happy with my AdLib Board, but I've noticed the following 
things which are mildly annoying:

	1) When two oboe or flute voices play the same note in the same
register (i.e., A'), instead of getting the indicated note, you get the octave.
(i.e., A''). I've only noticed this on the "pure" voices, you don't get the
behavior on a "noisy" one like crumorne or sitar. I haven't yet tried shading
the pitch of one of the voices to alleviate the problem, but I'm reasonably
sure it would work.

	2) On a single flute or oboe (or other "pure") voice, I sometimes get
a ghost tone that moves in a parallel diminished fifth or so. It's only in
the octaves above middle C that I've noticed it, though.

	Anyone else have oddball things like this with their AdLib?

				Andy
