Thanks for the info, Bernie.  That's all I need to know.

I can assume that the interrupts are not being handled properly, the
"locking up" may well indicate an unacknowledged interrupt.  I thought I
had dealt with this, but apparently not very well   This is my answer
then.  Incidentally, if esc is pressed before the lock up, all system
resources should be returned okay, not that this helps much.

My problem is partly lack of good information.  I have looked at the awe32
sdk you mention, but it only explains programming the awe synth and refers
DSP programming to the sbhwpg (sound blaster hardware programming guide)
sdk also from Creative.  This particular guide has been my number one
reference so far but it's description of DSP4 interrupt sharing is not very
enlightening.  Could anyone point me to more sb16 specific programming
information?

You are probably right for me not to use ESS as a name.   How about
Ensemble (for Euphoria)?
