I have songs that use inexcess of 34 channels in a single instant. I even
have a 24 channel .MOD file someplace!
High channel modules are not that uncommon, the new IT format doesn't have
an upper limit on the number of channels, they are allocated and destroyed
dynamically so you get the full decay portion of the sample.

I haven't got my SB working with OSS yet, I think I need ISA PNP tools..
It's odd, it doesn't give any errors when I load the sound module, but it
printk's when I try to play on the SB, gus max works great though.
