Accepted.

When running any 32 polyphonic hw synth,
it is able to do those 32 voices anytime.
When running out of the voices, something will
happen (e.g. voice killing/stealing). But it won't start any noise.

Something to concider
Would a check for guaranteed voices be possible for a soft-synth ?
That would require an extensive deterministic behavior, I think.
Instead of noise generation, maybe some sort of interpolation/silence
for sample values
could be used, when running out of processing power.

Kind regards
