About the limitation of the number of channels

[ASD]

Why are there number of channels of samples only up to 32?

Can the number of channels of 32 or more be used?
Or, does it come to be able to be used the number of channels of 32 or more in
the future?

Well, 32 seems high enough. Why do you need more channels?

[ASD]

It is because the number of sound files used is more than that of 32. And, I want to read the sounds from the external files.

Do you really need to play each sound on a different channel? Can't you play some of them on the same channel? I guess you won't play all the sounds at the same time.

Or probably you could have a looping counter that gives the channel number : each time you play a sound you increase the counter (and when it reaches 32 you reset it to 1).
