I was asked about playing a .WAV file, I'm not much of a sound expert,
but ARMbasic has enough performance to do the SOUND function of PBASIC
in BASIC, so if you don't mind the square wave computerie sound using
something like this --


' freq in Hz
' duration in msec

sub sqwave (pin, freq, duration)
dim start as integer
dim period as integer

freq = 500000/freq ' freq now 1/2 period in uSec
duration = duration * 1000 ' duration in uSec

output pin
start = TIMER
while (TIMER-start) < duration
period = TIMER
high pin
while (TIMER-period) < freq
loop
low pin
period = TIMER
while (TIMER - period) < freq
loop
loop
input pin
end sub

main:

sqwave (0,220,500)
sqwave (0,233,500)
sqwave (0,247,500)
sqwave (0,262,500)
sqwave (0,277,500)
sqwave (0,294,500)
sqwave (0,311,500)
sqwave (0,330,500)
sqwave (0,349,500)
sqwave (0,370,500)
sqwave (0,392,500)
sqwave (0,415,500)
sqwave (0,440,500)

This could probably also be adapted to do polyphonic sounds using HIGH
LOW and INPUT to do multiple frequencies.
