SID emulation on POKEY doesn't seem to have the out of tune situation. A new tracker based on SID emu (and not limited to the SID) would be good. Something similar to Ubiks Music on the 64. The volume only bits on POKEY, I'd guess that Atari engineers enabled that for a good reason. To allow full control of the speaker. The built in waveforms were probably not intended for superlative music. Afterall, I read somewhere that POKEY has undocumented secrets.
