polyphony, etc....

[Jason D Stephens]

Could anyone tell me the physical difference in polyphonic keys as
apposed to monophonic?  I mean, what does that entail in the circuit
design?  I'm just curious why they didn't start using it from the start. 
True, monophony has a kind of unique sound.  I was thinking of designing
a synth with a switch going between monophony and polyphony.  Some of you
will probably say "what's the point?" but i figure, why not?  It would
still give me the chance at seeing if i can do it.  ;-)  How much harder
is it to have polyphony than monophony?  Be specific as you want....  

I've been reading these messages and the Z80 controller system has
appeared more than once.  Sounds interesting....What exactly is it?

Thanx in advance
Jason
